Ok, sorry lads, I lied. Not a couple but, seven of the bloody things! I’m trying to get everything wrapped up for the year so, finally got round to taking a few pics. There’s a few Alpine here (obvious choice!), a couple of Panzerart, who I never realised actually made figures. I’ve had a few sets of wheels from them before but, their figures are a bit of a revelation. Last, but certainly not least, there’s a bit of a rare one from Nemrod (for Steel Masters).
First up, one of the Panzerart figures. I got this as a set.
Here’s the other one.
I’ll certainly be buying more of this range.
Next up, a few Alpine offerings. I swapped out the heads on these with the spares from the Panzerart offerings, apart from the first which has a Hornet head.
Another Panzerart figure. Couldn’t resist this chap. Looks like he’s just stepped out of a war film!
Ok, finally, the Nemrod fella. Lt. Colonel Creighton Abrams at Bastogne. My particular favourite!
I think I’ve now got US tankers out of my system…… or maybe not

Absolutely beautiful job on those figs Lazarus ! Great job painting them and your bases and groundwork are excellent too! Very inspiring!

That’s a great set of tankers mate. You have really picked out the uniform colors to perfection- they look very authentic and the small settings are perfectly judged- just right to give a single fig an interesting background.

Very nice! Your painting, the bases and the figures themselves all look great. How would you compare them to Alpine?

Hi chaps, thanks for the comments. I really enjoyed doing these. It made a nice change after the 120mm Verlinden figs I’ve been doing. Hopefully soon, I’ll be back to doing some more in-depth conversions. Got a few planned so, watch this space…. The Panzerart figures are excellent. I get the feeling that they are 3D designed. The box art and website shows CAD images and they seem a bit more ‘stylised’ than the Alpine figs. Each has it’s own merits though. The Alpine figures seem more natural, if that makes sense? Only problem that I find with Alpine is the heads. They always seem a bit bland to me, totally unlike their 1/16 offerings. I’ve just finished my first 1/16 Alpine and, the difference is like chalk and cheese. The Nemrod figure was apparently made as a special edition for Steelmasters magazine. I got this one from a seller on eBay along with a couple of others. No idea if it’s still available or not.
