These seem to have been on my workbench for ages, but at last they are finished.
Firstly the long awaited Portees, a cross-kitting of the Matchbox LRDG Chevrolet with the Zvezda 2pdr. It took a while to work how the gun was configured on the truck. It's actually reversed and sticks out beyond the end of the vehicle
Then a trio of Matildas, one previously owned and two new builds, I decided to be adventurous and paint them in Caunter. What fun working out the pattern and then which colours to use. In the end I opted for my Standard Humbrol Light Stone with Vallejo Green Grey (for the Silver Grey)and German Field Grey (for the Slate) In the background is a Oxford Diecast Daimler Dingo almost OOB except I have dry brushed it to tome down the colours.
Finally a pair of Priests, unusually these are marked up for 1st Armoured division as they operated them at El Alamein. I still need to find for suitable crew for these
Still in progress are the Daimler and a couple of deployed 2pdrs

Love the Caunter scheme on the 'tildas.
These vehicles are really impressive!
That's some of the best Caunter I'v seen. Well done sir!
A very nice set of vehicles.
Well done!
I have a particular liking for the portee.. nice Matildas too... by the by, if you were a British tanky you'd definitely want to get ride of those red and white identification marks!!
