New Photos of an Old Squad

Here are a few photos of the older German squad, but taken with my new lens!  Note the spot lights and machine guns added to the crusiers.  These new parts were spares from a WWII era ship model that was close to 1/1200 scale.

The Fleet Returns

It's been too long, but here is yet another ship of the German Empire. A protected crusier based around a WWI era light crusier design.

Dazzle crusier

An armored crusier with dazzle camo for the north Seas fleet. being that I have other matters to attend to this may be te last posting for a while, but check back later.

A squad of dazzle camo destroyers includes three destroyers and one leader. They will reinforce German forces on the North Sea.

Dazzling Destroyers

A pair of destroyers in matching dazzle camo escort the german raiders.

German Refitted Squad

After the deployment of the German Far-East Squad the Raider Rhun was recalled and repainted in a new dazzle camo. The Torpedo Crusier Ravenwater was also refitted with an armored belt to deflect torpedos and repainted in a dazzle scheme as well. Both ships will now serve together as raiders in the North Sea fleet.

Here is the first picture of the German Empire's Far East squad. This task force consists of four heavy cruisers six destroyers and one lead destroyer. All figures were resin cast from custom masters. Unlike their Baltic counterparts they sport green hulls and red smoke stacks.

Germans Spotted in the Far East

I was able to get my hands on a camera just long enough to snap this pitcure of a new German commerc raider as it headed off to the German colonies in the fareast. I used cottin balls to give it's stacks the look of emeting smoke. I thought it looked good and did the same with all the other ships in the german fleet.

Full Force German Baltic Fleet

Here is the Full German Baltic Fleet. Consisting of eight cruisers, a seaplane tender with four seaplanes, two monitors and, three gunboats.

The digs are Revell Hindenburg models the nefs are made from balsa wood.

My best yet!

This is in my opinion my best ship yet. This vessel is a German torpedo cruiser with a fine level of detail and an authentic WWI look.

Baltic Forces

Over the high seas

Elements of the German Baltic fleet. (Made from Revell Hindenburg models, they have surprising detail.)

German Assualt

Here is a German Dig fleet, with plenty of gunboats for bombing raids. And yes this one is all brigade figures (one is a british Engadine, but I think it looks good in the German fleet). Below is the entire fleet with a fixed wing bomber squad and fighter escorts.

Seaplane Tender

You also voted for this one so I built a German Seaplane Tender, with four seaplanes. You can see it has a steam catipult to launch aircraft and a crane to recover them.

Monitors

You voted for it so here it, I mean they are. A pair of German monitors.

Sneak attack

Here is a German Auxiliary Cruiser. I made it out of a German cargo ship, by tossing a few pop up guns in the cargo bays.

Here is a German trade fleet. thanks to resin casting I was able to create this entire fleet and a few extra ships not shown in only a few hours time.

Germans Take to the Skies

A German flying Circus deployed to the Rhineland. Unit consists of four bombers, two wings of high speed uni-wing fighters. And one wing of older biplanes reassigned to the Rhine land defence core, after the rest of their unit was shot down over France (sadly these pictures do the planes little justice, the detail is quite stunning).
