NKPA/USSR Armour - WW2 and Korea

NKPA/USSR Armour - WW2 and Korea, 12mm scale as with the rest, mixture of Minifigs (T-34/85, SU-76, SU-76i and T-70), Pendraken (IS-3) and Butlers Printed Models (T-28 and KV-2). 

Something to give the somewhat outnumber UN armour from previous posts pause - I also have a lot of other late war USSR stuff in Dragon/Takara pre-paints (literally hundreds of nasties from T-34 to ISU-122/152, JS-2 etc.).



Heavy metalski.



WW2 oddities - some texture on slopes and curves from 3D printing which are exaggerated as I use a lot of ink was and dry brush but nice models - paint finish is slightly different to the lead ones due to higher absorption into the plastic.



Will give the UN heavies some headaches.



More Kursk based but still useful in post WW-2/UN context.



Fire support - Minifigs SU-76s need crew adding - think I've got some spare somewhere.



Speedy but fragile!



Less speedy and much less fragile! Will pack a punch en masse.

Korean War US/ROK Armour

Another load of heavy metal goodness, a bunch of US/ROK vehicles that can also be used in my late WW2 collection in some cases - lighter armour in the form of M-24 Chaffees up to M-46 Pattons with a bunch of SP-AAA half tracks and M-19s. Models from Pendraken except the M-24s which are Perrin. 





Entire Force in all its glory!



M-26 and M-45.



M-24s.



M-46 and M-41 (M-41 not used in Korea but technically available and I like the models).



SP-AAA, M-15s, M-16s and M-19s.
