JAPANESE INFANTRY SUPPORT

Finally found some time to take some photos of my Infantry Support Options for my Japanese Platoon. 

These include Tank Assault team, Flame Thrower, Lung mines, Sniper, FO, Junior Leader with SMG, Type 92 70mm Infantry gun, MMG and Anti-tank Rifle.

Next, on the "to do list" are the Armoured support options.


Tank Assault Team, I removed the helmet from the figures and replaced the top of their heads with Green stick, I also modelled  the head bands, explosive charge and molotov cocktail.
Scratch built Flamethrower.
I modelled flaps for the cap for these Lung mine troops.
Sniper with Green stick camo.
Forward Observer for Mortar Barrage.
Since the Japanese SMG were rare, I only made one as Len has included it in the Japanese Support Options for one Junior Leader in the upcoming Far East supplement.


The scratch built Type 92 70mm Infantry Gun. 
All painted up and ready for action.
Scratch built MMG
Anti-tank Rifle with 5 crew.

JAPANESE TYPE 94 37mm ANTI-TANK GUN - Part 2

My scratch built Type 94 Anti-tank gun completed.

Part 1 can be view here: JAPANESE TYPE 94 37mm ANTI-TANK GUN - Part 1

The Junior Leader has spotted a target for the gun.
Scratch built gun and modified crew.


This crew member is fixed permanently on the base.

The base colour of the gun is Vallejo Model colour Russian Uniform. 


3 crew members have magnets on the sole of their feet and can be secured to the base of the gun as its base is made of metal sheeting.
