JAPANESE GRENADE DISCHARGER SECTION

Managed to take some photos of my Japanese Grenade Discharger section today.

The section is made up of 1 x Junior Leader and  3 x Type 89 Grenade Launchers each with a crew of 4.

The whole section have rifles and can either fire their GL or their rifles but not both in a Phase of Chain of Command rules set .


To create the illusion of the grenade flying out of the barrel of the mortar. I created a hole in the knee mortar with a hobby drill and superglued a very thin piece of wire.
I then used green stuff putty to create the grenade and applied small super glue on the front of the barrel and along the wire and applied fine flock.
The Junior Leader
I needed quite a few  kneeling figures, more than the plastic kits supplied so I had to convert a lot of standing poses into kneeling positions.

Cheers John
