28mm WW1

These are old Wargames Foundry WW1 late war Germans and French that I painted for what was going to be a small Trench Raid game. I got sidetracked by other projects however and never built the trenches, craters, wire, etc. I picked up a copy of Chris Peer's "To The Last Man" recently, and it has rekindled my WW1 flame!
I think I'll keep it simple and start with some gaming in relatively "open" terrain and try a few "Kaiseschlacht 1918" scenarios! I definitely need to buy a few more figures to add to these guys.


WW1 Germans. I like the trench raider with spade and shield!

The French take cover behind a hedge.

This is what I have painted so far for the Germans.

The French counter-attack!

A WW1 German Minenwerfer here in my town. Great WW1 camo scheme. It is quite small,
as you can see my 6 and 3 year olds climbing on it! I'll have to do some research and find out
exactly how it ended up here in TN.

  4. Another great period and superb figures. I notice we have very simular interests in the periods that we follow. Your AWI collection in your last post looks top notch.

  5. Great looking figures, I like the look of the French, they're very nice! I've got the same kind of photo, my two youngest daughters climbing all over a cannon at Walmer Castle, why do kids have to climb on them???? They just can't resist it!!
