Lovely stuff. The S model kits I made up for the Simon T group build were really good kits. Excellent fit and great detail. The best I’ve ever made in Braille scale.

These certainly look good on the sprue. Hopefully the build will bear that out.

Didn`t like the supplied Tamiya Kit`s figures and couldn`t find any resin ones that twigged my interest..... and then saw these!
I quite like ICM stuff,i think they still suffer from some savage reviews of their early kits and,therefore are under rated and,as i suspected,........these figures are rather nicely done:hungry:

That lady looks very much like Matron !

Hi guys

So some arrivals this week.

Reinforcements for Junior's Brit recon elements and some new soldiers, the Airfix ones I have really are not very good and according to the Plastic Soldier Review site these are supposedly the best at this scale. I'll do some of the M3A3's as turretless jalopy versions

The M3A3s were my first order from China via AliExpress - only 14 days dead on. Actually a very good experience as Dave pointed out a couple of weeks ago. Very good tracking and as he pointed out they operate an escrow service, so your payment isn't released until you confirm you're happy with the order. All in all very impressed.

I'm blaming the Tank Museum for these two.......in short I've ordered an updated reprint of a David Fletcher book, which should have arrived this month. However, it been delayed due to circumstances outside their control and so they have gave a 15% discount to everyone affected.....it would have been rude not to take advantage. Six kits, seven different possible versions at £6.50 per kit!!

I only need one of the Valetines for what I have in mind so I might a couple of vignettes with the other two....they even come with Russian commander........hear that John, a [COLOR=rgb(184, 49, 47)]Russian [/COLOR]commander!!!

Oh tell me more please Andrew !

As I explained I only needed one kit for what I originally have planned and whilst you can buy them individually, when you add P&P they work out at £10-11..... whereas with the discount the three were £19......so I have two 'spares'......I understand that these were soon relegated to second line units by the Russians but I was thinking it would have been rude not to do something, so watch this space!

[Guest]

That's exactly what I'm going to do - probably with three out of the four. If you've got any pic I'd be interested just to see how you did it.]

I’ll see about posting a quick thread about it

Hi all

So this arrived today. There's a small model company that does a lot of add-ons and AM conversion sets for Armourfast but with minimal work, this should work with the PSC Valentines that arrived this week.
