The First to Fight Bofors 37mm AT gun is a lovely little model, but so low that I could only use lying figures to provide a crew.

Winter Romanians - finished at last
After several months on their painting tray I've finished my Stalingrad Romanians at last, so now hopefully I've got enough Axis troops for a game. The figures are mainly the Strelets Romanians in greatcoats, plus a few Hungarians and Italians added to make up the numbers

Charlie Foxtrot - 20mm barn
I picked this up at WMMS, it was nice and easy to assemble. I'm not sure whether to ad a base as it's slightly longer than my other "modular" buildings.

US rework - M10s and Dodge Ambulances
Some quick fixes, simply repainting plus new decals added.
A pair of Fabbri/Eaglemoss diecast M10s (the sort you get for £2 at the Works) that I found on the B&B at WMMS
Crews will be added when I get my hands on the new Orion US tank crews.
A couple of cheap plastic models found in a mixed box of plastics at South Cheshire Militaire that are a very close match for a Dodge ambulance.
The decals came from an old Skytrex set that were being sold under the table by one of the Modelling societies at WMMS.

A few extra winter Russians
If you are wondering why there has been a lack of posts, it's because my wife and I decided to take a much needed last minute break for two weeks in Madeira. Just before leaving I managed to finish the last few figures needed for my winter Soviet infantry.
The 82mm mortar is Zvezda with one figure donated to the scratch built 50mm, there other one is Pegasus. The AT rifleman is from Italeri.
