1940, the BEF has found themselves short of quality tank crews, so these poor lads, mostly airfix RAF crewmen, have been reassigned. Some (Revell) men also pitched in with donating packs, while others made the ultimate sacrifice, donating their own beret clad heads!

Those are nice clever conversions, good stuff.

Where did the pistol-toting figure come from ?

The guy with the pistol wasn't an Airfix RAF…hes a modern soldier of some sort, from a bag of plastic figs I have laying about…but I used him because of his beret… His arm holding hte gun is from another figure though, I don't recall which one…

…… ok, thanks, I recognise him now, he's from one of the Orion Chechen wars sets.

Before you gave him that arm transplant he was brandishing a knife.

Impressive !
