A9 Cruiser Tank Mk I and A10 Cruiser Tank Mk II.

I have just heard from Neil Burt at Troop of Shewe that my A9 and A10 tanks for my Queen's Bays project are ready to ship. These images are from the extensive gallery Neil always posts to document his work.

The 28mm models are from Warlord Games.

Panzer I



I have just received some new images from Neil Burt at Troop of Shewe of my latest commission. To add to my collection of early WW2 AFV's, I now have these PzKpfw I's, (Panzer I's). The models are newly released Panzer I's from Warlord Games who also made the tank commander. Neil has applied his usual authentic finishes and weathering to create to the models but tells me they required very little additional modification, other than the aerials he will add next.

Of the 2,574 tanks used in the invasion of France in May 1940, an astonishing 523 were these diminutive early Panzer I's.

1st Panzer Regt., I Bn, Light Tank Company



More figures (and photos) from Neil Burt of Troop of Shewe, this time elements of 1st Panzer Regt., I Bn. Neil is not only an expert at AFV's, he is also a very accomplished figure painter as you can see from the Kublewagen and BMW crews.
