These are the latest creations from my workbench, Perry British for North Africa. The armour, which are Blitzkrieg vehicles, was done first so lets start with them.
First up, three Mk. III Crusaders, painted for the First Army in Tunisia 1942, although the markings are horribly wrong.

Next are three Shermans, also intended for Tunisia but the painting scheme is actually from the battle of El Alamein.

Last is a carrier platoon of three vehicles. These were really fun to paint even though the cast of the carriers were not that good in places.
