Our stellar community consistently wows us with their painting and modelling. We recently asked you to show us your tanks, and you didn’t disappoint. We received an overwhelming number of replies, so many that we’ve decided to split our Community Showcase up into two parts. Perhaps unsurprisingly, we received far more pictures of German vehicles than for any other nation (you guys certainly do like your German big cats!), so we’ll kick off with your Axis vehicles.

Sadly, we are unable to feature all the submissions, but we appreciate everybody who took the time to send us a photo – seeing your models ready for the tabletop battlefield never fails to give us a kick!
