I've been working on some 25lbrs for North Africa, mainly using the PSC set with Morris Quad tows.
Here is a 2 gun section, complete with limbers and Morris Quads. I've also added a CMP tow vehicle from Anyscale Models as an HQ vehicle or spare tow.
These are painted in desert yellow, washed in Agrax Earthshade and dry-brushed Iraqi Sand.
These 25lbrs were a gift from Ian at the club, spare from his set made up for NW Europe.
The original guns from my set (on left) were assembled as 18/25lbrs for early artillery support, although they were also issued as relatively effective AT weapons, mainly to Australian units.
All the guns, 18/25lbrs on left and later 25lbrs on the right.
18/25lbrs.
25lbrs
I also found some suitable wheels, so made up a second pair of 25lbrs with muzzle brakes, although I've obviously put them in a safe place, as I couldn't find them for the photos.
Thanks for looking.
Nice selection, must have another look at the Anyscale Models selection
ReplyDeleteThanks Will. The CMP came in two halves split down the middle. I thought it might be tricky to get them to match up, but the superglued join matched well and seems pretty robust. I also got a Humber 4wd staff car, which is nice. I'm doing that for NW Europe, alongside a trailer.
