DAK Attack has become very popular at the club at the moment with people assembling vast quantities of 28mm LRDG vehicles and figures. I thought I might build up a DAK force to provide some opposition. I enjoyed painting the 20mm DAK figures that I have, so decided to give it a go with some Perry infantry and Warlord support pack. While perusing the table top sales at Hammerhead, I spotted a pack of sentry figures, one DAK, one 8th Army and a WW1 Tommy or Doughboy. I got the two figures for N Africa mounted and painted them up. Tommy is taking a crafty drag from a cigarette, while Fritz is lighting his own. Both these figures were marked Warlord Games on the base, but no sign of them on the current Warlord website.
Tommy's greatcoat is khaki, shorts, shirt and helmet are Iraqi Sand. Fritz greatcoat is US Tan and helmet desert yellow. Figures were washed in Agrax Earthshade, base colours touched up and highlighted with base colour with a little Iraqi Sand or pale sand. Faces are light brown with pale flesh highlights washed with Reikland flesh wash.
Nice figures, should do the job of sentries quite nicely. Now on with assembling and painting the Perry DAK infantry.
Thanks for looking.
