Gazza's Stuff

[pmskaar]

It looks like a very nice collection of vehicles you have, Gazza!

Lookin good Gazza!

Thank you.

After seeing this commemorative paint scheme, I'm tempted to get a few Eurofighters and paint them up as such.

[redleg]

Yes!!! That looks awesome!

A small update (in the form of some optional elements) to my U.S. Armored Infantry Battalion.

Anti-Tank Gun Crews
Deployed as additional infantry squads.


Advancing .30" cal MG teams
Six per Company. It's just a shame that Adler don't do an advancing .50" cal team.

Very nice work on those, Gazza!

Great work Gazza. I really need to dive into doing some infantry... I am always so hesitant to pull the trigger.

Another quick update. This time it's three Guy Lizard Armoured Command Vehicles. I bought them when they were originally released without checking when they were in service. A few unarmoured / mild steel prototypes were used by the 1st Armoured Division in France 1940. Actual armoured versions were used in North Africa.

Models by H&R; Roundels by Dom's Decals; Geometric symbols by GHQ; Paints by Humbrol, Vallejo, and Games Workshop.

Awesome collection! And I really like the way you have it organized!

[redleg]

Great work Gazza! Both on the infantry and the command vehicles!

[Mortis57]

Thanks guys. I've not finished anything else since then but here are a few teasers of things to come.

Whilst looking for something else, I found a bag of 8 Raiden 1/285th P-51Ds with drop tanks. As I've already painted 4 (some years back) I really need to check their paint scheme out so that the 'new' ones complete the squadron.



There's also 4 old Skytrex Maus that, although I've replaced with a newer H&R version, I currently have the urge to repaint.


Another tank company that I've had sitting around for years is this 22 tank strong company of Panzer III Ms.

Wait...you had 8 P-51s in 1/285 scale that you didn't know about?

I can't wait to see them all painted up!

[Mortis57]

Wait...you had 8 P-51s in 1/285 scale that you didn't know about?

Well... I sort of knew. I just forgot that I hadn't painted them yet. I also have 8 H&R P-51Ds (in 1/300) so I'm not exactly short of them. Not to mention the P-38s and P-47s.

I can't wait to see them all painted up!

Well until I finish them here are the original 4 - bottom of the 2nd column from the left.


And closer shot.


I've finished repainting those old Skytrex Maus. Although I now have the urge to redo the H&R Maus and E-100s.



Models by Skytex (now owned by H&R); paints by Vallejo, Humbrol, and Games Workshop; decals by I-94.

OMG, you have more Mice than any one I know.
Do you have any cats? Or a bunch of cats?
That helps to keep the Maus population low.
Any tigers, panthers, pumas?

I do like your airplanes, too. Very nice indeed.
Thank you for posting.
