Hi guys

Finished these on commission for a long time customer, he unexpectedly sent me a parcel of yummy chocolates from Canada recently, so I decided to return the favour by gifting him this JS-1 to go along with his infantry, I built it many years ago, I believe it was an Italeri kit, I detailed a couple of areas with wire, all comments welcome.

Hi guys

This is the organising part of a 1/72 WWII winter US commission, figures used are TQD (metal), Italeri US winter (sand), Italeri US (green), PSC US heavy weapons (grey), a couple of Italeri US Paras and a couple of Italeri Brits.
I have done some basic pose and head conversions to minimise the same poses, I will further modify them by winterising the none winter troops.
The force is for chain of command and will be the opposing force for these Winter Germans
http://gunnerswargamming.blogspot.com.au/2015/04/tdqs-kharkov-ss.html
Also making a 5 man bailed tank crew, just for the fun of it.
The TQD figures are a little larger than the plastics, however not overly so, and they all mix together pretty well, and I will be bulking the plastics out a bit when I winterise them.
Should get these on the painting desk in a week or so, all comments welcome.

Hi guys

This 1/72nd Winter US commission is nearly ready for painting, I have tried to keep copies of poses to a minimum, have added 2 x 6 man ATG crews, these were made up of a mix of PSC US heavy weapons and Russian ATG crews, this force has quite a mix of figures, US infantry and paras, Brits, and Russians, but they will all look like Yanks once painted. All comments welcome.

Hi guys

Winter US finished on commission, most of the greatcoat figs are TQD metals, lovely, but large, the plastics are all converted, and are a mix of a couple of Italeri sets (winter and summer uniforms) PSC US heavy weapons and some PSC Russian anti tank gunners, I think this force turned out nice and will ask the owner to post some pics of this force once based. All comments welcome.

Hi guys

2 1/72nd Dragon West Europe SAS jeeps finished on commission, crew are converted PSC and Hat tank rider figs, difficult build with the gun pods having 11 parts each, the gun pods are just blu taced in for now, these were very expensive kits, I could have bought 4 of Airfixs excellent Jeep, 6 pdr mountain gun and trail for the same price.

What a wonderful collection of beautifully painted models.

Curiosity question: How compatible are the TQD & AB ranges size wise?

I think it depends on the range, for instance ABs fallschimjagers are pretty small, but there late war Germans are bigger, TDQ are a pretty large range, I have put AB and TDQ together on a command base and they went well together.

Enjoy seeing the green stuff additions you put on the cheap plastics. Fantastic painting!
