This article is not a review, just a little write up about my latest painting exploits. I had been sitting on these guys a while and after finishing them I really wish I hadn't.
Wartime Miniatures an Australian based company has produced some lovely 20mm Panzer Lehr. For $16.50 Aussie you get 11 figures which is great value. As an Aussie, this is awesome and something I am happy to support. I have only painted 10 up so far and am yet to do the Halftrack Gunner. If you know me and have been following the blog, you know I have a very strong admiration of the Panzer Lehr. They were one of Germany's best and their story is both triumphant and tragic.
This is the second lot of figures I have painted in 20mm and the first Wartime Miniatures I have painted. I was most impressed. I currently have the Adler range on my bench and have some of the new Elhiem figures enroute. I will post some comparison pics at a later date.
These miniatures are for my 20mm Normandy themed battles. I will predominantly play Ironfist Publishing's Battlegroup ruleset with them however Bolt Action may get a looking into as I will have opposing forces for my mates.

Three of my favorites. Throwing a grenade, MG42 and Panzerfaust |

A nice variety of poses |

I dabbed the helmets with a sponge |

A great sculpt this on |

Probably my favorite. But is it a left handed Panzerfaust? |
The following Panzer Lehr images are sourced from the internet and WW2 Colourised Photos on Facebook.
You have done a great job painting those 20mm Germans.
