Fantastic stuff John. I'm currently painting up Early War German, if they turn out half as well as your BEF, I shall be over the moon.

I do have one query, which is whether the BEF Vickers VI would have the sandshield?

 Yes thanks Shahbahraz I just realize I painted up the wrong model , I have two versions this one was meant for the desert army that has been sitting on my desk for the past couple of years.
The other thing that was pointed out to me was that the Senior Leaders cap should not have the red band
need to correct that
cheers John  ;)

Like I said elsewhere, these are bloody marvelous! Really dig all the work you put into that force and love your conversion work on the carriers. Just yesterday I bought me one to try my hand myself.

Thanks all for your comments and I am sure your are more than capable of the carrier conversion Nick.
cheers John

Post by: Shahbahraz on July 02, 2019, 01:10:14 AM

Did you lost the carrier conversion work anywhere? I am planning on a BEF (51st Div) force at some stage, and it would be great to see how you did the carrier conversions.

PS .. I did put up some first pics of my EW Germans on another thread, but I was wrong, they aren't nearly half as good.  :'(
