Hi everybody, today I am working on a few conversions... some that I have had in mind for a long time, others that just made it recently. Right now I am about ...
Burkhard, I'm confident that if I did a conversion you would be unable to recognize which mini I started with. For that matter, I'm willing to bet that no one...
Hi Jim, ... ... Well the basic idea would be for it to look like plate H2 in Osprey´s Gebirgsjäger book (Elite 63) and exactly like it. I would only ask to...
HI James (VFM), I will do so in a minute. There are two other guys on that plate that partly overlap him. I have removed most of them from the scan to prevent ...

For Americans, use all your friends names. Andy ... of each base. The colors are by squad or platoon depending on the setup. In the future, I want to try...
Guys, Thanks very much for suggestions, links, etc. for names. I had thought about going through unit histories but I have mixed feelings on using specific...
Mike, Then you may not have many names as I think pretty much every name has at least one casualty associated with it. Instead, I would choose names at random...
Hi James (VFM), to answer your question... no. The mini will end up being Wehrmacht, so the mini I am working from will be Wehrmacht as well. (That is one hint...
Hi Jim, ... ... That is what the challenge for me will be. I want to do a mini that is of good enough quality not to stand out between my other VFM´s and...

Thank you Glad to hear you like the group. Give me a squad of guys and I will go against a platoon. if its a double blind game I am really in. Thank you James...
