NEW THIS WEEK – MONDAY 22 FEBRUARY 2010

Hi there once again and welcome to this weeks newsletter

Well we’ve popped back into the Eastern Front Collection and added another 130 photographs, so no rest here at Miliblog ! Volume 4 is now completed and now we have started Volume 5. Each volume contains 250 photos which I think is big enough for any one of us to handle.

I’ve just included 5 samples this week, so enough of my rabbiting and I will let you have another look at all the stuff we have for you. Remember the main portal you must enter to see our vast number of photos on Miliblog is the ‘Gallery of Photo Collection’ 

Our first sample shows a mashed up Soviet T-34 tank, an early version with the smaller turret and the 76mm gun. We next have a photo of Hans and his bunker. Maybe a place to keep out of the cold winter nights, but I bet it was still a pretty damp place to live in. A convoy on what looks like Mercedes Benz lorries comes next, in the winter snow. It could even have been photographed in the UK this year with a re-enactment group, with the amount of snow we had this year. One for our modelling friends comes next: a Panzer III tank, with winter white camouflage that’s been crudely applied with big brushes. A proud officer standing by his Opel staff car and no wonder that he’s looking proud, as from the civilian registration number, it look like it’s been commandered and a ‘WH’ painted on the mudguard to show new ownership by the Wehrmacht, or German Army.

So I wish you one again a great week and good luck with any military vehicles you’re working on getting ready for the show season.

Cheerio !
