Here are the rest of my purchases from Sunday. These Great War British gunners and their repainted Crescent guns are a delight. It would have been nice if there was an additional gunner, but I have in mind a suitable figure.
It's many months since I picked up any Solido models so it was pleasing to find this pair. The Panzer IV has some paint chipping but is otherwise in nice condition.
The Sdkfz-251 is in lovely condition - even the delicate plastic radio aerial is as yet undamaged.
I tried manfully to resist this Victorian artillery crew. Buy hey, I'm only human. I believe they are Hinchliffe figures.
And finally... This nasty plastic HUMMWV is more or less the right scale. And it was only 10p!*
For overseas readers that's about $0.15 US.
Those Victorian gunners are splendid!
ReplyDeleteThey are indeed! I like the crescent guns too.
ReplyDeleteAny more WWII Fletcher Pratt to be sighted on the horizon?
ReplyDeleteI'm incandescent with envy, wish I could have made it to Birmingham! Doh!

ReplyDeleteI did try to resist them - but purchase was inevitable!

ReplyDeleteThe guns have been very nicely repainted - hopefully this will spur me on to further such activity.

ReplyDeleteIf even you are jealous I must have had a good day!
The Victorian gunners and the horse artillery look superb. Most envious. :)
