Title: Cromwell Troop (BAM) *updated*
Post by: SgtPerry on December 11, 2008, 07:33:40 PM

I finished a troop of Cromwell from Bolt Action Miniatures. They have the markings of the Troop 2, A Squadron, 2nd Armoured Battalion Welsh Guards. It's a vehicle in resin with only several metal bits.

Gorgeous tanks, and nice markings and weathering on the wheels and tracks!

Nice!  8)
Just out of curiosity, how much WWII vehicles you have in your collection? ;)

Excellent  :)

Incidentally, your image is rather massive.  (File size, as opposed to length/width)  Whatever editing software you are using see if it has a "Save for Web" option.  The images will load much faster.  :)

@Orctrader : I must check the compression ratio for .jpg files. May be I switched it to 1 instead of 10.

@Calimero/Remington : Frankly, I don't know. I would 15 russian vehicles, 30+ german ones, 6 US ones, 5 early french ones 10 british ones at the moment.

I painted 4 Cromwells, 3 for the Troop 1 and one for the commanding officer. The markings are the ones of the A Squadron,  2nd Armoured Recce battalion, Welsh Guards.
