I was born and grew up in Perth, I should really try to attend at least once.

very nice job, great brush work

So did I, not that I needed anymore paints, but was a nice excuse to get some of the new army painter paints. I'm planning on painting a few minis just using the John Blanche sets, was a bit disappointed there was no guide for the John Blanche style but plenty online.

Nice job, the white helmet white trim and the cross make him a veteran and a member of the 1st company assuming he is an ultramarine. Did you get the John Blanche paint sets?

very nice, I can almost hear the drums

nice job, I need to make a start on my Japanese stash.

nice idea and great execution.

hi @echen, sorry for your woes, only just seen this. If you are stripping plastic I recommend biostrip 20 https://elementgames.co.uk/paints-hobby-and-scenery-by-manufacturer/biostrip-20/biostrip-20-500ml it works a treat and doesn't melt plastic. it should last for ages too, you just need to dip the model in it so it gets a nice coating and then leave sitting on a plate or something while the cream does its job. Cheers Calum

Great build and a great collection.

Nice job

Nice collection, there is a distinct lack of kits for British interwar stuff in any scale but especially in 1/72. Ive done the Independent and the Vickers medium myself.

I believe 67 refers to 1967 so it was the T54s and 55s that were captured during the 6 day war, I think Ti-67 was used as a catch all term. I have a couple of books on the subject which if I have time I will see if there is anything more.

I just remembered I have these from a couple of years back Left to right we have, Italeri, Plastic Soldier Company (PSC) and Armour Fast all in 1/72. Armour fast I'd leave to war gaming but the PSC offerings build up nice and it does have the option of various marks if I remember although some details are a bit basic.

The Italeri (Esci) Valentine in 1/72 is a nice kit, there is also a Bishop using the same body sprues, however not so easy to get hold of these days, Ebay or one of the second hand kit resellers is your best bet unless Italeri resissue it. Fujimi did a 1/76 too. I'll second the Rubicon kits if you dont mind the 1/56 scale, it also has options for various marks, the Rubicon transfer sheet has a load of options too.

great job on the tank and the diorama.
