TAG Late War Germans |
|
These are lovely figures. Well-proportioned, animated poses and nicely sculpted. I love the NCO with the Soviet PPSh SMG - he comes free with the Late War German offer set. I had some problems finding the right colour match for the late war uniforms. According to Osprey MAA 336 - The German Army 1939-45 (5), the new Felduniform M1944 issued on 25 September 1944 was made of inferior quality cloth in a browner green-grey shade (the so-called Feldgrau 44). I could not find the right shade despite mixing many combinations of Vallejo German field grey, khaki, English uniform and brown. I finally settled on Vallejo camo pale violet brown 825. It's not a perfect match (needs a touch more green), but I think it's close enough. Vallejo German field grey can still be used since the old cloth was also used to make the new Felduniform M1944. I have mixed in the old field grey among the figures below to add some variety.
