Pretty good looking set, I have to say... BTW, the painting on those examples seems to be a well done job - especially the figure washing hands. It just got me with much lighter upper arms where the sun is blocked by uniform sleeves. Good job MiniArt...

Oh come on Al !
The Brits never shaved, washed up, brewed tea or sat and read !!
Give your head a shake !!!
Seriously, it would me marvelous if someone like MiniArt did a British or U.S. set like this.

I'm not sure but I think Vladimir Demchenko is the painter.

Oh yeah,these are the ticket all right. I'm also in agreement that a similar Allied set is needed.
Thanks Miniart!

Nice early war set - let's hope they put out a late war set as well

MiniArt are a company who tend to release 'in parallel'. They announced the British A/C crew and followed up quickly with a German set. Same with the U.S. MPs - they then did a German Feldgendarmerie set...

Don't be at all surprised if they announced a parallel British set on the same theme...
