I have ordered from them in the past. The EW British cruiser tanks were pretty badly pitted but the T35s were fine. The landing craft were flawless. How is the quality lately? Shhhhh…. Don't tell anyone in my FoW group but I'm thinking about getting Cromwells and Challengers. So I am asking about those specifically. |

I looked at GM for Crusaders and Grants but ultimately went with BF. For some reason the GM Brit tanks looked a bit odd to me. Could just be the photos but I wasn't willing to pay to find out. Now to be fair I am the happy owner of several GM vehicles. I love the SdKfz trucks, unique sculpt. The PzIIIJ/L looks good too, as does the Lorraine Schlepper. Had some pitting on some M20 scout cars and the dodge carrier, but a little filler and sandpaper solved it. His stuff is closer to true 15mm so compares small to BF which I think scales closer to 18mm. I plan on going to Gamodels for all of my transport needs like Citroen trucks, various German tracked movers etc. Hoping he'll add Italian trucks and movers soon. |

Seen the Cromwells…not as good as the BF resin and to me it looked a fair bit smaller…didn't like the quality of the cast but to be fair a nice paint job compensates for many of these short comings. |
