Popski's day out Matchbox L.R.D.G

[combat]

Ooof, I don't think I have posted anything, actually for that matter I don't think, if I'm not mistaken, I have put anything together for about 9 months now.  Tidied up my model area and just got a half decent compressor (Edward the Compressor I call him).  I think I am slowly beginning to understand the different materials and how to use them.

I still have a very heavy hand and am too messy.  Spend a lot of time fixing silly mistakes.  Also got some decent glue.  So I feel this will be a pivot point and hopefully the last of my messy builds.

 

Not finished yet, got the jeep to do, I will use the box decals even though they are for NZ (so not historically acurate for the PPA), still I was dying to get something up, builds a bit of morale.  Will start another small build thread soon - next up will be the Humble Humber and if I make an effort it will be somewhat tidier.  Thanks again for all YOUR inspiring work which is so encouraging!

Nice this, Popski's Private Army has long been one of my favourite North African reads, some interesting times & your build catches it well to my eye.

Steve, thanks for the kind words.  Many said the NZ sheep farmers had excellent mechanical skills, adapted well to life outside and were hardy combat men.  Popski held them in high regard!
