574 - Desert Rats Vehicles Finished!

Hooray: All done!

A Crusader Mk I, Humber Armoured Car Mk II, and some transport - let's call it a 30cwt lorry.

Managed to get them varnished today, and took a few pics outside:
 Scale?!
 Grumpy driver. It gets hot in that desert!
 Camo...
 ...Camo with moving turrets.
And for those of you wondering how the camo works at a 'distance'.

It goes almost without saying that I have enjoyed the challenge of these anything-other-than-olive-drab vehicles!

Cheers, all - just a few bits left now!

- Drax.

  2. Love them! Great work mate, this is going to be a very good looking army.

    Grumpy Humber commander deserves to pout, that tin can must be worse than a sauna inside!

    2. Cheers, matey!

      Hopefully it'll come together okay - we'll know soon, as I've only got a couple of weeks now, before the event!

      Yes I have got BA2: dirt cheap too, courtesy of Col. Gravis' website, Kirton Games.

      I will be exploring it's ramifications for me, but the event for which I'm prepping my Desert Rats is determinedly First Edition, so I'm trying not to confuse myself!
