WW2 ALLIED ARMOUR part 2 SHERMAN TANKS.


Here we have my second batch of WW2 vehicles painted up. These are a troop of Sherman's with a Firefly.
I have also just finished another batch so I will be taking photo's of those for the next post and then it will be onto Early War German vehicles which have been prepped up ready to paint.

A few action/staged shots along with some of the vehicles I painted in batch 1. Hope you like.







 
 




Lt. Colonel J.O.E. Vandeleur: You don't know the worst. This bit we're on now?
Grenadier Guards major: Yes?
Lt. Colonel J.O.E. Vandeleur: It's the wide part.









Just looking at the stats on this blog and I have noticed a couple of milestones that I have passed. Now had over 200000 views and 301 followers, so I thank you all that pay this blog a visit.
The most popular post on this blog is the War of the Roses, Sharpe Practice page with nearly 6000 visits. Makes me think I will have to do some more of these in the future, along with my AWI.

    Makes me want to move home to Nova Scotia, dig out all my kits in storage and play with them, or fixing up the ones I have.

    Lovely, lovely work. BW photos are superb. The first photo made me think of 'A Bridge Too Far' as well. I can almost hear Michael Caine!
