Romanian WW2 figures

[Sunray]

Does anyone in the forum game with a Romanian WW2 army/ BKC battlegroup ? If  so would love to see images of the Pendragon RO series figures .

Hi Sunray

Came across a posting about Romanians http://10mmpatrioticwar.blogspot.com/search/label/Romanian,

pictures:-





Maybe the blogger has more pics.

Cheers

Not many, and the ones on the blog show my limitations as a painter more than anything.

Many thanks  for the info and replies.   What prompted my query was that in 10mm,  the figures might pass for 1940s Dutch -  apart from the blanket roll which may not have been Dutch equiptment ?   Has anyone tried this conversion? Add a few French officers in Kepi and you could have a viable 1940s battle group. Their support kit was the Italian 47mm anti gun.

Hello Sunray

Haven't found any info on blanket rolls for Dutch infantry but did find some pictures with a large roll hanging on the back:-




Maybe Russians in greatcoats, or Romanians in winter equipment could be used for Dutch marines:-



The only other option I can think of is maybe SCW spanish helmet types, the Spanish and Dutch helmets are sort of similar if you hold them at arms length and squint  .

Some great images of  "the cloggies"- many thanks.

Yes, the Romanian helmet is a dead ringer and at a pinch you could use the Pendraken Romanian figures.

How cool is that shot in the 1940s of the bomb actually leaving the mortar tube !
