WWII American M36 Jackson TDs, 15mm Command Decision

[Whiterook]

This is a platoon build of five WWII American M36 Jackson Tank Destroyers, from April 2009. It was the third 15mm miniatures build project I'd done. A Command Decisions platoon bag, this was my first departure from Flames of War to the all metal, hollow hull miniatures produced by Old Glory Miniatures. Old Glory were priced cheaper than Flames of War, and had a great range of miniatures. Not as heavy as FoW, but still a very nice weight to the individual minis. Exceptional metal units and accessories, the detail is marvelous... the only thing missing are the decals, though I'd already bought some from another market to outfit several sets over time.

The turrets, main gun and arms, treads, and accessories are loose and require assembly. Unlike the FoW minis, rare earth magnets would not work in the case of this miniatures line to secure them in place, nor BluTac, so you must use a bit more care with loose turrets.


The Finished Work













I love the open turrets of these TDs
