Latest Nord West KampfGruppe meet

Post by Paul Wills »

Hi Guys,

Another great day for our meet, the sun shone and we have some more new comers, Roy and his son. Here’s a few photos, we tried to take photos through my WWII German rangefinder and my periscope binoculars, normally referred to as donkey ears or scissor binoculars. but they didn’t turn out as well as we hoped, i.e. you can't see the ranging grid.

Antony and I shall persist in our quest to get those out of the ordinary shots, I have suggested one of our group lay down and keep filming while we drive a tank over him :shock: , however we can’t get anyone to volunteer after a recent incident involving one of Antony’s figures and Clive’s Panther :roll: .

I can’t say too much as the heath and safety inspectorate are now investigating!

Hi Paul,

Well I think they came out really well :wink: . BTW the figure is Paul Morris's not mine.

Below is a link to one of the video's I took, Clive's Panther one wasn't too good as it looks like I presses against the glass too much. I'll post some photo's later. Thanks for bringing the scopes today, I really liked seeing them, nice piece of history Paul, cheers mate.
