The crew for the 5.5" guns are some of the spare 25pdr crews with some large rounds added. The 17pdr crews are those for the 6pdr, but with some Sgts Mess 17pdr rounds added to replace the 6pdr ones.
All the guns needed some repairs, but one 5.5" needed most of one side replaced which involved a new barrel, trunnion and trail, which luckily I had in my bits box.

Those 5.5 are pretty hefty. That's a very well stocked artillery park.
Nice units of artillery you have there.
Nice work Will, they look great. PSC crew are streets ahead of the old Airfix figures.
Cheers, Andy
Very smart indeed. Just goes to show the value of a well stocked bits box.
Lovely update!
