"...And At The Siege Of Tobruk!" Topic

Almost sounds like these little tanks were going to win the war all by themselves.

A pic of them cut down to size – these are 1/144th scale Arrowhead metal models, painted in the Caunter camo scheme.

Trenchworx's 3D print resin crewman added as the Troop Leader fig (I'm likin' that pose a lot).

Was true, that they could turn on a dime.

They look good.

DJ, thank you bud!

They look great and the Caunter Camouflage is just getting better and better. I am so glad that you have not added a 30 cal to the commander's hatch. Seemed odd to me and I can find no images from WWII showing that, other than the comic book illustration, which, as you said, maybe slightly exaggerates its value against a King Tiger (fortunately a rarity at Tobruk either time).

Super!

DH, you're too kind, and probably see the mistakes I missed on the first pass (these closeups are unforgiving – and better views than I can see with my own eyes). :)))

Kev, thank you too (these little tikes will be tooling around the table at our Sunday games day).

Yet another great job there, Dave!

Looks good. Different than I usually think of.

Great models and painting!
Always loved the MK VI

The consensus is that this mg mount was for a Bren.

And it looks like the illustration was taken from this photo, lol!

Great work on those, FlyXwire! A very nice representation of the Caunter scheme.

Silurian, I think you've found the advert's inspiration there!

Pete, I think I'll give this scheme a rest now for awhile. :)

Beautiful stuff!

Nice Caunter camo. I've only tried to do that a few times, but was never happy with the results.
