28mm Churchill Project - Mk,III, Mk.IV NA75, Mk.V CS, Mk.VIII Crocodile
Mk V CS The Mk.V was the Close Support version of the Mk.IV, mounting a 95mm howitzer. 1944 and we STILL couldn't quite get away from Infantry support tanks The 3DJson figs I use come with berets or helmets, and are in 'true' proportional 28mm rather than 'chunky/heroic' sizing. They're...- Steve-the-Duck

28mm Churchill Project - Mk,III, Mk.IV NA75, Mk.V CS, Mk.VIII Crocodile
Mk.IV NA.75 The NA.75 was a field modification to add the 75mm off a Sherman to the Mk.IV. This is based on a photo of this tank driving through an Italian street, and it's absolutely covered in dust. I could have just painted it sandy-grey! Unfortunately, the photo doesn't show the name, but...- Steve-the-Duck

Tamyia 1/35 Universal Carrier
Very nice turn out there Right with you on the Carriers soft spot, having done four-or-five 28mm conversions so far, but yet to do an actual Universal! And then there's that 1/6 scale all metal kit... Every time I see one of these Tamiya jobs there's a different set of figures with it!- Steve-the-Duck

Fairy-Kikkaku 1/700 Imperial Russian Navy Repair ship Kamchathka
If anyone wants the, hilarious and semi-apochryphal tale of the Kamchatka, star of the voyage of the Second Pacific Squadron from Kronstadt to their destruction at the battle of Tsushima in 1905, I highly recommend Drachinifels piece on Youtube. There's a black comedy TV show in the Kamchatka...- Steve-the-Duck
