Captain Blood's Western Desert: P.125 - SdKfz10 half-track with 2cm Flak 30

[Malamute]

Pretty much everything everyone else has said. Figures really bring vehicles to life and under your brushwork the figures really Stand out and compliment the stunning work on the vehicles.

Can't wait to see them in an action soon.

Cracking little collection Richard, you must be really pleased with how they've turned out.

[Captain Blood]

Thanks chaps.
The Austin Tilly is very nearly finished...

The Austin Tilly is very nearly finished... 

And now it is 

Thanks to Hammers for his extremely kind donation of this lovely little kit to the cause! Peder - I owe you several beers, my friend 

Must say, being Tamiya, it proved a wee bit more fiddly to build than the Rubicon kits. But it's very beautifully produced.

I have painted it, as you can see, in an entirely unhistorical and made-up Caunter Scheme camo. Basically 'cos it looks nice.

The top half of the driver I swapped for a Perry plastic Desert Rat. Although you can't really see him much anymore 











This model is 1/48 scale, whereas the rest of the collection is 1/56, so the Tilly is a little bit oversized, but not so much that you would notice on the tabletop.
I guess it's about 10% bigger than it ought to be.

But here it is next to the Perry Marmon-Herrington A/C painted by Brent, and as you see, it's not a bad match.

I've attempted to match the colours used by Brent is his Caunter Scheme.





And here, for scale comparison, with a couple of 1/56 'true 28mm' Perry plastic Desert Rats...

That's a cute wee car! 

[Ultravanillasmurf]

Excellent, the Caunter scheme suits it.

[Ballardian]

The Tilly looks lovely & like you said, being so small anyway doesn't look overscale. She deserves a name, Jennifer perhaps.... I'll get my coat...

[Hammers]

I changed my mind. Hand it back.

[Mason]

Oooh, aint she lovely?
 

That colour scheme really suits her and those stripes help blend her in nicely scale-wise.
A very cunning plan.
 

I changed my mind. Hand it back.

 

[Captain Blood]

I changed my mind. Hand it back.

[Hammers]

Seriously, the bren gunner makes it look quite badass.

[Vanvlak]

Those RAF pair are brilliant - and very colourful for a camo scheme too!

[pocoloco]

Wonderful! 

[gamer Mac]

Lovely work Richard
It scales a lot better then I was expecting!
especially with  the small Perry figures

[NurgleHH]

Nice Richard, but don't forget the italians for the game...
