Thanks - just a pair of £2 +3.5 reading glasses. I really should get a proper illuminated magnifier.

Re: Show us yer stuff!
Here are some GHQ Panthers that I completed a few days ago. I just finished 6 more with 4 of them being the newer models with sideskirts added. This gives me 12 Panthers right now with more on the way.
To see more Panthers and other stuff, check out Pete's Place here on the Forum.

Thanks very much, Gazza! That is a very nice collection you have there. The Hortons and Monty's Caravan are definitely things you don't normally see.

Re: Show us yer stuff!
Revamped Churchill III Squadron.
All the vehicles are Heroics & Ros Churchill IIIs. Two have been converted into Churchill Vs by replacing the main gun with a shortened gun from a couple of spare Cromwell turrets. Another was converted into a Churchill ARV Mk.I by replacing the turret with a card disc and addition of several slivers of plastic card to represent wooden beams, boxes etc. One photo is the before picture, then there are two of the completed unit. The final photo is a close up of the converted vehicles. Paints by Humbrol, Vallejo, Ammo, Citadel. Decals by Beacon Decals and GHQ.
Before

Finished

Re: Show us yer stuff!
Those are interesting Merkava bridgelayers and the 5 axle HEMTT is also interesting, Chris. You sure have a large variety of different modern vehicles for sure.
That is a very nice collection of Churchills you have there, Gazza! I have some GHQ Mk IIIs and Mk VIIs plus a pack of Crocodiles and some AVREs. One of these days I will get some more painted.

Great work Gazza! Your infantry look particularly awesome! I wish I could get a camo paint job on my grunts that looks half as good as those guys!
Love the HEMMT PLS Chris! Our ammo platoons had 18 of them - great piece of equipment. Did you kit-bash it?

Re: Show us yer stuff!
Thanks for the kind words, guys. In regards to the infantry, let's see if I can keep that standard up when painting a battlion's worth.
After finishing the revamp of the Churchills, I updated the Word document of my WWII British Forces and then converted it to a series of images. It might interest one or two of you.

Thank you Pete, Redleg.
Gazza, nice Brit armor, or armour…..
M60A3, apply camo net w/glue. Let sit a day. Glued on styrene piece after fume extractor.

Final camo netting on barrel and turret rear.

Re: Show us yer stuff!
So I got the crazy idea I wanted to model an Iranian battlegroup:
Recce Screen


Tank Squadrons:




Command Group

Infantry and Anti Tank Sections
