“Grenades!”, 1/35 Dragon

“20^(th) Waffen-Grenadier-Division Baltic states 1944”, Dragon

Two Waffen SS grenadiers are hiding behind a fence, ready to use their grenades.

This is the second half of [this kit](https://www.reddit.com/r/modelmakers/comments/1s5fs30/behind_the_fence_dragon_135/). I broke it into two separate builds because positions of figures don’t fit well together. These two figures do, more or less.

The main problem with this kit is the figure ready to toss a grenade bundle has a weird jacket. I couldn’t find what it is. It’s not parka because it’s too short. It’s not jacket because it has breast pockets and is also too short. It’s not one piece overalls because those were thin and not padded like this. In the end I decided to just paint it in Oak camo pattern and be done with it (box art calls for green).

Rest of the kit is fine enough. Solid details, some expected flash, nothing people familiar with dragon figures of the era wouldn’t expect. Also generally nice fits.

Overall…… I’m happy it’s finished……
