Bolt Action Panzer-grenadier platoon progress

Just a quick photo spam for the progress on this almost completed Bolt Action 28mm project, including the MG team conversions 


Converted MG teams

MG32 arms from Halftrack sprue, loaders arms from Wargames Factory sprue.



Vehicle 215 was knocked out of commission in the previous days engagement (Thats my story anyway, nothing to do with the destruction of a number 5 on the transfer sheet). Note that the red numbering is a separately purchased transfer sheet, not included in the Panzer-grenadier box set.

Work In Progress

With several projects on the go, I thought I would just post a cross section of the work in progress with these quick snap shots.

Ashlynn D'elyse, skin and details only just started. Further highlighting throughout required.




Early days for the half-tracks, some effective weathering simply by rubbing off the first base colour.



Half the zombies from my Zombicide Kickstarter investment. Thankfully the test paint job below works a treat and is quick and easy to do.

Bolt Action Panzergrenadiers unboxing.

Just arrived and brand new from Warlord Games this is the plastic box set filled with 28mm plastic mechanised Germans. It includes 30 infantry and three of the first 28mm plastic vehicle produced by Warlord games Sd.kfz 251/1 ausf C (Aka Hanomag, half-track).

The information for the contents of this box set were limited so I was interested to see and keen to share these goodies.


A nice chunky box filled with sprue, it includes 6 sprue for the 3 Half-tracks, 6 of the regular infantry sprue (5 models on each), 4 weapon sprue, 3 transfer sheets, bases and instructions.

Nice to see the transfers included,unfortunate I ordered additional sheets.



The 4 weapons sprue means only potentially 4 StG44 assault rifle and 8 MP40 between the squads. I will be looking at converted models with the Wargames Factory 38mm Germans (MP40 are bountiful on those sprue).

The weapon and infantry sprue (below) are ofc already known form the infantry box set.

Now for the Hanomag, the two sprue look straight forward and easy to construct with a decent amount of detail. Included are a few but not generous number of additional features for stowage and customisation, these include helmets, jerry cans, spare wheel, and MG34/32 options for front and rear.

If I find time soon I will certainly post a built one. :)
