Blitzkrieg!

The latest additions to the 1940 project, 1/72nd kits from The Plastic Soldier Company.
First up some rather natty A9 Cruiser tanks for the BEF.
Next some Czech 38T light tanks for the Whermacht.
I am currently painting up the second squad of German infantry then I will start on the second section of British infantry. First there is a little of matter if some earlier Huns to get finished off.
Until next time........KBO

  3. Looking good. I had no idea that the A9 had a multi turret version. As to the 38t, there is just something very compelling about that vehicle. I have the Pegasus models.

  4. Really nice looking kits - I do like the early war period when the tanks had much more character than the later armoured behemoths that dominate so many table tops.

    1. Thank you Rob. Early stuff certainly seems quaint when compared to the later war stuff

  6. Very nice Phil, those A9’s should pack some punch, but they will quickly be outgunned by more powerful Panzers !
