"Hell on Wheels" - US 2nd Armored Division in 15mm: M10 Wolverines

Next part of "Project 2nd Armoured" is finished - four M10 Wolverine tank destroyers ready to go on the hunt for the big cats.

The kits are from Battlefront Miniatures and I even have the option to build separate turrets for the Late War M36 Jackson with his powerful 90mm gun.
Stowage is Battlefront and PSC, but most of it are self-printed 3D files (and in the case of the crates with the baguettes and wine these are different STL´s I combined in a 3D program), the antennas are made from guitar wire, sandbags, bedrolls and tarps I made from Greenstuff.

To hold the stowage at the front of the tanks the crews often used what was available locally and in this case I made the holders from a model railway track.

The 4 completed Wolverines:



The successful commander of the troop - at least regarding gathering supplies 😅



I wonder which well-filled wine cellar the Germans had overlooked?



It seems the crew of this Wolverine stopped by a bakery!






The other two Wolverines:

"Hell on Wheels" - US 2nd Armored Division in 15mm: Start of my M10 Wolverines

After my little excursion into the fantasy genre with Warmaster Revolution, I'm going back to the historical genre:

M10 Wolverine tank hunter for my US 2nd Armoured.
It seems that the guys were quite successful in "organising" supplies 😎😂

M10´s are Battlefront Miniatures with perfect fit of all the parts and that was a joy to assemble, stowage is Battlefront and 3D printed ones; the crates with the Baguettes and Wine Bottles are assembled in Chitubox from different STL´s, the sand bags and tarps are again self-made from Greenstuff.
