20mm WWII Axis Forces for Operation Battleaxe - Rapid Fire

 

This is the 15th Pzr Division, 5th Light Division and Italian Trento Division, for "Operation Battleaxe" weekend game with Harry & Dave Playing British and Janos and I playing German and Italian.

I started this project February 2011 and finished nine months later in November 2011, for our big game which we played in April 2012. 

The DAK figures are Airfix and Esci, All Vehicles are various plastic kits, Diecasts, Britannia, Frontline and Ready to Roll. Italian Infantry are a mix of Raventhorpe, Britannia and a couple of others.
