20mm Early WW2 German MG08 team (lockdown 5)

Another success from the lockdown has been this item from the lead pile, an Under Fire Miniatures early war German MG08 team, three gunners and a three man loader team.


The MG08 - I figure this will be good for an early war HMG team or for a Volksturm HMG team in 1945 - as infantry in greatcoats were pretty much timeless during WW2.  I've based these behind a low bush and added some pink spring flower clumps for a bit of colour.



Three man loader team, all carrying additional ammunition for the MG08.




Nice figures, quite easy to paint with good raised detail.

Thanks for looking.

      Thanks Will. They come in handy for beefing up the Volksturm with some extra firepower.

    Nice work there Sir. Under Fire Miniatures very definitely approves this post.
