I just finished this mini dio of a 25 pound field gun with crew.

The base ended up a bit smaller that I wanted. I did want the model to go off the scenic base, but Its a bit cramped though!

Any way here are a couple of pictures of the end result.

I do have another set, the one with the quad tractor but no crew, and a whole pile of PE for it, but I think that will wait a while yet.

I hope you like it and as usual comments welcome.

Nice one Ian, i'm like Snapper i love the 'squaddie tan'. As soon as you see it it jumps out at you, great work mate. I've got the Quad tractor and 25 pounder in the stash, will get around to it sometime. Anyway, this build has put a smile on this ugly mug so five stars mate.

Have fun, John

Thanks chaps. It was a challenge what with all that skin.

I did think about a tattoo on a couple of them, I just couldn't figure out what.

This is great, Ian. The figures are painted so well, even to the extent of a tan showing around where one of their vests was. 5***** The officer really has that officer 'look' about him, too! lol
