Managed to finish off my NachtJaeger and SchreckWulfen for Konflict 47 today.
Nazi Scientists desperate to gain an edge over the allies, resort to splicing canine and human DNA and create the Schreckwulfen or 'werewolves' ... emboldened by the success of this experiment they go on to add bat, alligator and reptile DNA creating the terrifying NachtJaeger... a pseudo-vampiric horror... Gothic horror has come to the battlefields of Europe...
Based on DIY 30mm Dia bases which I think better suited both models, made from 1mm sytene sheet.
I enjoyed modeling and painting these creatures up as they were quite different to things I've painted before.
Great to have a chance to use the blood effects paint from GW 'blood for the blood god'... which I rarely get a chance to legitimately use...
And some nice base decoration tufts from Gamersgrass: 2mm dark moss and 6mm dry tuft.
I decided to stick with regular issue Whermacht field grey for their pants ... I thought about doing SS camouflage pants but figured these being largely nocturnal hunters they probably wouldn't need the camouflage...
Looking forward to trying these beasties out in a game now they're painted😀

KONFLICT 47 - A super cool extension to the events of WWII...
Very nice job on both units. I was sure on the Nachtjaeger at first but I am slowly warming up to the models. K47 seems fun it will be cool to see what appears for the other nations.
ReplyDeleteI like the way your painting reflects the style of the actual art work in the background.
ReplyDeleteGreat looking figs!
ReplyDeleteAren't they lovely!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, they look awesome Scott.
ReplyDeleteVery nice Scott! Love the Nachtjagers in particular - suitably nasty (they even decapitate troops on their own side I see! The 30mm bases definitely look better
ReplyDeleteI picked up a M8 Grizzly Medium Walker today and looking forward touting it together
