Hans-Ulrich Rudel's Ju87 G tank buster



Finally I'd worked more on the Rudel's "Kanonenvogel" ( Cannonbird ) stuka for the last several days and able to post some preview images here. The plane is a Ju87G Stuka which was equipped with 2 Flak 18 37mm cannons and is mainly for tank buster role. Although the Ju87Gs were the least maneuverable of all the JU87 variants but they were used extensively on the Eastern Front and proved to be very effective tank killers. Stalin had placed a prize of 100,000 ruble for downing Rudel but no Russian pilot was able to claim the prize. More details will be added and will post more images here soon......

Russian Cossacks


Posted today is one of my boxart projects for wargamming figures. It depicts a team of Terek Cossacks raiding a German supply depot. To me, the cossacks has always been an interesting subject matter ( same as the Polish cavalry ) especially they are a dramatic contrast to the weapons and machines used in that period.

Soviet Armored and Cavalry Forces book cover


This is a cover painting that I had created for Battlefront WWII Miniatures a few months back. It shows T34s charging side by side with the soviet troops and Cossacks. Battlefront WWII Miniatures produces a unique and vast line of WWII wargaming figures and military vehicles under the name of "Flame of War", very detailed. Also, their web site features a wealth of information of WWII uniforms and AFV. You can check it out at http://www.battlefront.co.nz
