AVRE with Carpet

A Milicast AVRE with carpet for the beach.  The exhaust pipes at the back are a constant problem with breaking - still a very nice kit.


Another AVRE with SBG

This time it is with a bridge made from the Matador Models kit pieces to make it into a folding SBG.

AVRE with SBG

This has been sitting completed except for stringing it together for a few months.  With luck (and finding a few diagrams showing the rigging) there are a few different Churchill funnies still to come.

Revell Churchill AVRE with SBG
The rope at the back looks too clean - so will need some staining later.

DUKWs

These are plastic DUKW kits with added resin stowage etc.

I built them so I could have a rescue force available to cross the Neder Rhine from Driel to save my beleagured British 1st Airborne boys.


Sherman Flail on D-Day

This is a Milicast Sherman Flail that has added photoetched chains attached with CA adhesive (parts of each finger also remain attached)

An ACW interlude

I am busy painting up 9 regiments of Union infantry for the ACW project  that I started last year.  They will join the start that I made as part of the Guild Challenge for 2010 where I painted the stuff below.


While this is going for the next few weeks, I will reach into the kitbag and post up some shots of stuff I have buiolt over the past two years and would only have been seen if you are on the Guild or SOGG forums.
