Thought I should add some pix of my Springbok armour to this thread. Most of these were built a little while ago, so some of you might have seen them on other fora, but if you havent, here we go:







Thanks for looking...

If you are interested, there are more pix on my blog at http://smallwarssouth.blogspot.com/2013/05/28mm-south-african-armour-italy-1944.html

Hiya

Have added some reinforcements to my Springboks in Italy... a few specialists, a few HQ staff, and a vehicle or two to get them around:











Vehicles from Company B (Morris truck) and Warlord Games (Carrier Mk2). Figures are slightly converted Artizan and Warlord Games miniatures.
