WW2 German MMG teams

A small update as I complete some missing MMG teams for my early WW2 Germans, I had been using some late war version up until now. The fogures are mainly "First to Fight" with the comanders from the Airfix Pak 40 set.

El Cid era Spanish light infantry

Almost the last of the box of HaT Spanish infantry produced an archer unit and three units of skirmishers (two javelin armed and one sling)

I would have liked a unit of crossbow but you only get four in a packet of ninety six!

WIP - Henschel Hs 123 & Dewotine 520

I have completed the assembly of the two aircraft. I experienced the usual problems of fitting the struts and the upper wing on the top of a biplane.

Now onto fitting a screw underneath for the magnetic stand and then it's painting

On the Workbench - March 2025

Just back again from Granddad duties and I now see myself with a clear period for a while, so a chance to get back on track I hope.

I'll be working on:-

• Assemble and paint the Hs 129 and Dewotine I started while travelling before I found the task lighting was too poor for my old eyes.
• El Cid era Spanish light infantry - nearly finished painting
• Finish repainting a trio of old Matchbox M3 Stuarts - they now have caunter applied
• Three Early War German MMG teams - nearly finished painting
• Almoravid heavy cavalry
• Three units of SYW British Infantry
• Start the FDM 3D printer - I have found some interesting Vietnam buildings by Rubicon on Thingiverse

Western Gunfight buildings

Here are the four buildings I received from my daughter for Christmas, they are all now assembled and painted, and have even been used once in their unpainted state.

I will add some logos later once I have sorted something out.

Clear out now on ebay

Well, after some problems I have listed my current army surplus on ebay. They can be found here, but if anything is of interest let me know and a deal may be possible. link

Beautiful Boy

Just returned from visiting my daughter and my first grandchild my first thoughts are of John Lennon's "Beautiful Boy"

He is called George after my late father, which is very touching

I feel my life is going to change, in many ways!
