MiniArt has released a new set of figures representing a German tank crew between battles, and here Kevin Brant has a look and builds the figures.

Yikes, even the proportion of the fingers look strange. They look so short and stubby.

Eek, run away! Figures that actually require me to do clean up!

They look pretty good. But then I have low standards hardened by years of dough faced earless figures.

Wow...these guys take the term "schweinhund" literally! I like the poses and have a number of after market parts available to replace the heads. I'll put these guys next to a Pz. IV on a Paris street.

Surprisingly bad. I have their US tankers set and it's very good. Not sure that Hornet heads could save these fellows.
