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

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

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.

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.

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!

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.
