Right, finished updating the Minimi 252. Stripped all detail from the top, cut a few new hatches and gave it some minor detailing and 2 headlights, and busted 1 up. Ready for paint. Just need to scout for funds to pick up the ammo trailer.

Picked up 2 Panzerjager 1's from Britannia for this project, but 1 came with a busted barrel. Grubby is sending a new one but I think I will send it to the Afrika box.

Gunner is fixed in place, commander is pinned but still removable for painting. Nice little tank, and with the drilled out muzzle it looks so much better.

Another update:

Gave Piers skinmethod a try:

I like it. My old method made them look a bit zombie like.

Finished 2 supply/light trucks:





Finished a staff car:





And plenty of other things to come....

Staff car for my EW Germans (also for a spotter and for the Propaganda Kompanie).

Way too many coats of varnish on it so the detail is a bit washed out I'm afraid.  :blackeye:








Brittania Beetle, my favorite vehicle to paint. Converted it to resemble a customised VW Beetle I saw in Normandy last year:

First of the infantry for this lot done

Officers

Guards


Colour codes

(in this case this army has the blue tab, and the chaps, fltr, are 2nd, 1st, 1st and 3rd platoon. HQ troops have no marker, support has a red marker

And the Sanni




And some nostalgia

All Britannia except the officer on the far right, I don't know who made that.
