Hi all

Some more stuff finished for my Normandy project including aircraft. I haven't based the vehicles yet so I thought i'd take some pictures on my terrain boards and they look much more realistic without bases, but bases are need for transportation and handling.

First up an old photo….

Or maybe not

GHQ Challenger – with new brass rod barrel


GHQ Cromwell 95mm CS tank


CNC Crusader AA tank – wrong version for Normandy I think but nevermind…

GHQ Humber Scout car – lovely model

GHQ 17pdr – need to base and paint the crew

Some air support
The photos didn't come out as well becaase the were not under the lights enough and the shading is much more subtle. They look a lot better in real life! Decals are all from Doms Decals and i-94 Enterprise

GHQ Typhoon IB – beautiful model

Raiden Tempest II – gorgeous model but too late for Normandy or even WW2

Scotia Spitfire MkIX – average model compared to Raiden or GHQ. Including Johnnie Johnsons personal aircraft.

Cheers all
Kieran

i like the flocking effect, but I cannot see any details of this on your blog – am I missing it, or is it yet to appear?
