Panzer Crew. France 1944
From MiniArt
Kit No #35364
1/35th scale
The box contains four figures of German tankers.
German tank crews of late WWII were becoming a bit of a mixed bunch by 1944. What experience they had at the start of the war had been largely eroded away in losses in the east, so that only a small core of veterans still remained, with a large group of young recruits making up the remainder. Often commanders who had survived until this point in the war were paired with very young crews to make th numbers needed. These young men grew up fast on the western front in 1944.
Especially in warmer climates, the leathers and the tight clothing that were a constant int he early war gave to camouflaged tunics and soft hats or visors over the bump caps Panzer crews wore during the initial Fance and Western campaigns. These soldiers from MiniArt are seen in such latter war tankers uniforms.
They come on four sprues in the box. One figure to each sprue. No other information is available. These are new figures, so no resin heads needed this time!
