Re: Group Build - Belgians
T13's are Frosted Ultra Detail from Shapeways - they are on the pricey side but so are the only other available model the Wespe resin kit which is about the same price but is complex to build. The 3D models were also nice and easy to paint. The only flaw is the turret has a complete turret ring and is not totally open at the back which makes crewing more difficult.

Many thanx....
Greatness is not in where we stand,
but in what direction we are moving,
we must sail sometimes in the wind,
and sometimes against it,
but sail we must, and not drift nor lie at anchor.

Re: Group Build - Belgians
Hi Serge
That is an impressive amount of Belgians. Other than FAA what figures did you use as I don't recognise them. Also who makes the T13 B2 and the Heavy Artillery Tows.
I am hoping to have 2 Rapid fire Battalions / Battlegroup Companies each of Regulars and Chasseurs Ardennais by the time I finish.

Hi James
I have the Retrokit T.13 and as I recall it goes together really easily! Though possible not as easily as a two piece 3D print
Cheers

Those look great and it's interesting to see a Belgian army painted up.

Re: Group Build - Belgians
Great project ! I've been thinking about a 500pts Belgian Army for Battlegroup for years but I've managed to buy two resin T13s so far Unfortunately I started too many projects at the same time and my Belgian Army will have to wait ... But I really admire your work
