    Spent some time at my house in France over Easter and got out some of my kits and models I have which I have used for WW2 gaming over the years. Owen keeps asking me to show him mine, so here we go ( :mellow: ).

    First a Matilda dating from the early 1980s using the camo scheme suggested in the old Airfix 8th Army guide and/or Airfix mag.

    These were taken with the phone on my camera, so not brill.

    Some unfinished SHQ Panzergrenadiers. Hope these are of interest; I am currently working on some Armourfast Shermans for NW Europe.

    I had them all stored away in an old toolbox at my parents house for many years mate. I have some great 6-pdr Portees somewhere, but I didn't find them this time. I scratch built them from the Airfix mags. Hope to find them next time.

    Now I've finished the Italeri Matilda, doesn't that old Airfix one seem basic?

    I suppose so, but that kit was already 15+ years old when I made it. In that respect, it isn't really bad for its age.
