Thanks gents

Dirt applied and base mostly done.

004 by Mark Hartig, on Flickr

I had a MiniArt tank crew for this but the four piece tankers helmets proved to be more than I could stand as they needed filing to fit and the parts are so small I could not hold them. The garbage bucket won that round. Got a Tammy crew in the pipeline by way of replacement

Regards,

Mark

Thanks gents

The Dad situation has finally stabilized to the point where I was able to finish this. The latest Tammy US tank crew offering is absolutely splendid, molded along the lines of the Dragon 2nd generation figures and they fit so well no filling was needed. A far cry from the old days when Tammy figures looked like people that had undergone bad plastic surgery...enough blather here it is

Tammy even gives you rank and unit decals for the little guys. Hope they continue in this vein

Thanks gents

Tony it's item 35347**1400, US tank crew set European theater. I'd not noticed the last six characters in the stock number until I looked closely at the box, now I wonder if they are really a Tammy molding
