SDKFZs Mechanised Guards

[Dragoon King]

Since your going with a desert them, why not use a few Tallarn heads? Also, respirators on the Rough Riders makes good sense, don't wanna be eating dust all the time, lol.

[Colonel Jacka]

@ col. Jacka : Just what i thought, why horses when you can go by bike ?

Sad to say, no, my squats are mineworkers in overalls and safety helmets.

Like this :





Hope you like them. Planing to do a squad of squats as veterans for my guards, but i lack some models so i have to wait and see what happens next... SDKFZ

I have seen this army didn't remember it was yours. They are great and I love the mining theme! And you have just given me and answer for my Mole Project!

Subscribed!
Also, that mining machine thingy is pure awesomeness!

[Colonel Jacka]

Yes it is ! I'm just going to copy it!

I do the same for my roughtriders, and i do that:

Thanks for all the feedback, Guys !

@ Dragoon King : Dont think the Tallarn heads fit my theme. I keep the respirators for my stormtroopers ( homemade, not metal. ) But thanks for the suggestions.

@ NightseeR : Thanks !

@ Mr P :

@ Col. Jacka : Well, then i must have made something right.
Longing to see your version of it.

@ little : Great, more bikers ! Yours look exellent !

SDKFZ,

I was going to do the Mole as a cylinder shaped vehicle, but I think your Chimera version is the better why to go. It will fit better in my Army

[SDKFZ]

@ Col. Jacka : Glad to inspire. Any questions or specific pictures, just ask

How did you make the drill bit on your mole? Is that the lego miners drill by any chance?

[Brad01]

Sweet work mate, I see you have ranking marks *three hooks* on the sergeants chest plate?

What if you were to go through the units and put 1 hook for private, 2 for corpal etc etc?

[SDKFZ]

@ nagebenfro :No, its just different sizes of piping cut to the right size and form. The bit in the middle is what my Doctor uses to look into my ears
Kindly donated.

@ Brad01 : Yepp, that would have looked nice, but thats to much work for me.
BUT, my Corpral actually has his two chevrons

Hi there!
Really nice work! Keep it up! I love the camo pattern, it looks really great on the infantry and the tanks. There are some people who tried to do the same scheme but yours is the first wich looks exactly like the one the US Army used. I think I even found your arch enemy: http://www.warseer.com/forums/showthread.php?t=202167

keep up the good work!

[SDKFZ]

Thanks ! And yes, they look the part

Made my medic as they used to look



and from the back.



I will switch the flags between this and my Platoon HQ. After all they are some sort of Arm. Cav. , arnt they ?

As allways, your thoughts on my builds are allways wecome !

[tcraigen]

great work the medic is very well done

[Colonel Jacka]

SDKFZ,

One comment on the Commander. The water bottle is in the wrong place they should be placed half rear no type of webbing used would have a water bottle sitting there. That's what we would call a ball breaker if he goes to ground! Picky I know.

[PariahZero]

New models look ace lad, just one question, what are the mortars on the medic meant to be

[SDKFZ]

@ tcraigen : Thanks !

@ Col. Jacka : As the Commander is supposed to be "you", i used myself as a model. On swedish webbings we didnt have fixed "hooks" like the US style. We had a "carbinhook" (dont know if its called that in english ) so i fixed my waterbottle to a loop of leather and it ended up hanging here.
Cant remember that i crushed anything during my basictraning and i managed to get two kids afterthat so ill keep it like it is, but thanks for the info.

@ PariahZero : Thanks, they are some sort of blood/plasma bottles. The old medics had something similar, youll get the idea once i paint him.

[Colonel Jacka]

Lo really L Glad you didn't crush anything. And your right your Commander is modeled on "You!"

Oh I really like the Medics bone cutter as well.

[SDKFZ]

@ Col. Jacka : Your welcome, that ones on me B.t.w. i stole those cutters from the old Marinemedics.

Have been sidetracked by an Armoured Car. Couldent help myself, just thought that they ( my Guards ) needed a Recce. 4x4. Using the same turrets that i used on my Chimeras and a SDKFZified "little" pattern Armoured Car body.
It matches my Salamander in height and look.
sorry no pics. today, soon, any day now.........
