Hi folks,

My but you are all as quiet as mice !!

Some in progress pics courtsey of George Moore on the 6 inch Howitzer. Both WW1 and WW2 versions are planned.







Cheers

Al

Thanks for putting those up Al.

Quite a few of the guns were sent to France with the older spoked wheels, some had a "tyre" of sorts, others had what appears to be a widened or extra outer rim attached.
it is hoped that a future release would possibly be the Dragon MkIV that towed the early pattern guns, they also went to France in '39.

There are a number of variations, a small compromise was needed, so I hope we are able to satisfy different markets, and before anyone asks--------No! I am not doing those blessed "girdles".

Thanks
George.

Hi George,

No problem, going to be a busy year, next year.

Cheers

Al

Thanks for the info Alan. Just one thing to note. Alex` name is van der Wetering, with one t only. If he`s doing masters for Resicast than that is a good thing: the man is a wizard with styrene...

Hi Benjamin,

Thanks I'll correct that, but the error is on the Resicast site as I just copied and pasted the info into a thread.

Cheers

I like the idea of the folding bicycle and the M31 conversion. I still have the Academy M3 in my stash

Very excited about the 6in mortar

Hi folks,

Those of you who remember the Welkom in Belgie review I did of the carrier crew and Belgian Soldier will also remember that some these figures were going to be released as individual items

The British Soldier in Greatcoat is already out as kit no 35.5630 and also to come is the individual Belgian Soldier form the set.







Here is a preview of another new figure in the form of a medic with stretcher.





This one is designed for NWE and I do hope we will now start to see some additional medical troops to fill up that gap in British/Commonwealth figures.

Al

Hi folks,

A couple of in progress pictures of the 7.5 ton Light Recovery Trailer, courtsey of George.





Al

Hi folks,

George has kindly sent me some additional pictures of the completed article, He's add ed a little rope and chain form the spreas box. I have to say this looks terrific. One thing there is a sever shortage of is trailers of all types so this will be a welcome addition when it arrives.







This should be suitable for Light Tanks, trucks and small vehicles. Here it's shown with the ramps stored.

Cheers

Al

Ah, the great British reserve . You'd get a nice Carrier or Vickers on top of this one. I'll upload a few pics later.

Al

Hi Guys,

As promised a couple of reference pictuers to help put the Light Recovery Trailer into context. This kit should make for an interesting diorama.





Cheers

Al

Bump,

In case you were on holiday or asleep!

Al

George very kindly sent in a walkabout of the trailer which I uploaded this evening so that should be along for reference soon.
