The Copplestone WWI figures aren't really compatible.
With anything, for that matter considering how bizarrely oversized that one pack of infantry is.

Your last one  :)

Good enough to warrant serious attention, I hope...

A useful approach to tweaking gaming models.I tend to view casting detailing in a different way. My approach isn't will it cast(obviously it's a starting point.) But is it easy to glue back on once it's been dropped.
I look forward to seeing how this progress as my mojo for the period has diminished somewhat .This looks like it might be the ticket.To pop it back in gear.
I'll be honest I can help but think you'd saved a tonne of time if you'd bought the one I made  lol  ;)
(Three turret versions, three wheel types((one to fit in with diecast cars)), separate front armour((so you can represent the habbit of raising the front armour to stop overheating)) starting handle spade and oil can,bucket and horn built in.)

Haha - yes, I've looked at it before (I have a few of your creations already).
This one is 'free' for me anyway but more to the point the tinkering is at least half of the fun, right? :-)

It usually starts with 'just a quick fix' and a little bit of plastic strip and escalates.

Sadly true. Obviously they will work with the same manufacturer's Turks, but that's not what I had in mind when I bought mine.

Sods law says it's gifts that normally cost me more in the long run.They either become starting point for a conversion ,or race to the top of the painting list as not to offend the giver.
If you need some spare weapons I could easily find a few I use for masters. Including spare lewis guns.
