Let Me Stand Next To Your Fire

As a change from the seemingly endless amount of Germans I have been painting for Stalingrad, I painted up this Early War Miniatures Double Kleif M1917 flamethrower for my 20mm First World War Germans. I have had the set for a while now and really I bought it because of the ready painted flame marker that came with the piece.


The pack consists of five crew men and a Stormtrooper unit leader, along with the lengths of hosepipe for the Kleif. The two flamethrowers are joined together by a Y join and allowed for a bigger and longer flame than the single man-pack.


When the flame marker is added to the mix it makes for a dramatic model!


This will make for an excellent scenario with the double flamethrower making its way across No-Man's-Land to attack a strongpoint.


This was a nice diversion and was a pleasure to put together and paint. The fire marker really makes this set stand out.

    Nice piece. I like the flame - suitably terrifying, provided the snipers don't pick them off before they reach their target.
    Cheers,

    You understand your projects stand out of the crowd. There is something unique about them. It seems to me all of them are brilliant. https://dawangcasting.com
