20mm WW2 German Panzergrenadiers in Italian camo

These are mainly Caesar WW2 German Panzergrenadiers (Set 2) with prone MG34 gunners from the PSC 20mm Waffen SS set.  I've painted them up in telo mimetico an early Italian camo pattern, representing cloth "liberated" by the Germans after the Italian Surrender in 1943.

Base uniform colour is Russian uniform green diluted with Iraqi sand, followed by irregular islands of German camo medium brown, with Iraqi sand blebs as smaller infills in brown blebs (at least that's what I was aiming for, rather than a random set of three colour splodges - honest!).

Usual organisation, six man command team and two man Panzershrek team at front, followed by three 5 man rifle teams and three 3 man prone MG34 teams.

Some individual figures - grenadier.

Running with MP40 SMG.

Commander figure kneeling with Knights Cross ribbon beside a kneeling figure with AT weapon - I took this to be a Panzerfaust, but PSR suggests it's a thrown AT grenade.

Similar to the version above.

Rifleman standing firing - not the best pose unless he's in a trench.

Panzershrek gunner.

Chap marching with slung rifle - I'm using him as the Panzershrek loader.

Prone MG34 teams.  Gunner and mate from PSC, chap throwing grenade from Caesar.

Close up of the figure with slung rifle as he best illustrates the telo mimetico scheme.

I thought I'd also try a monochrome image to see what the camo pattern looks like in black and white for a period flavor.

I like the final look of the scheme.  I need to do some research on whether the scheme was mainly used in Italy or if it was more widely used.  I like the final look, so am tempted to make more use of them.

As ever, thanks for looking.
