Richard B`s task 1 (updated 16th May)

[Richard B.]

This year i`ll be plodding along as usual all 20mm

5 German cyclists (Raventhorpe)


US boat crew + guns (Raventhorpe)


Panzershreck team (kneeling NCO is hard plastic Esci, the gunner and loader are SHQ)


5 marching figures - the guys with helmet are Esci hard plastic, the guys in cap are Airfix mountain troopers with arm swaps


5 combat poses - standing figures are SHQ, i don`t know who made the kneeling LMG guy?


All the foot figures together - a reinforced platoon under our rules


More to come as they are completed

[mausmann]

Good to see you plodding along mate......

[Petracelli]

Good stuff Richard, like the raventhorpe crew figures.

[Don McHugh]

Loving the guys on the bikes

Need to start my build soon.

Cracking conversion work and good mix of figures.

The crouching MG34 figure might be FAA or Combat minis, I do have a figure similar by FAA somewhere....

I also think the crouching MG34 is from FAA possibly from the TED range.

[Richard B.]

Thanks guys, one of many odd figures bought ages ago from god knows where

[Richard B.]

I continue my plodding

Two Morris radio vans (Britannia), the one without tilt has a Raventhorpe drive



A PSC Honey


Altogether

[nickoftime45]

Great progress, those wireless vans are nice bit of kit, will have to get some of those.

[mausmann]

Just various glues (depends on the donor parts), occasionally we have a casualty, but that is easily fixed Tumbling Dice do packs of arms with swords, lances, pistols and rifles which have proved highly useful, also various hard plastic kits had multi-part figures in the day.

We use Charles Grant`s "Battle" rules from the 1960s - the ancestor of RF according to Colin First set of real rules i discovered way back when i was 12

[Richard B.]

And there`s more

Clearing the decks with various little bits to break up open spaces on the table.
Figures and truck just for scale

Fish and meat stalls for a market place - a bit big in 20mm, but i added the platforms to make them more like auction platforms
These came from Spanish cheap shops 60cents each



Piles of wooden barrels (resin truck loads by Sgt`s Mess)

Supply cashes (resin "objective markers" from Early War Miniatures)

Well (another Spanish cheap shop find for 50cents)

[mausmann]

Nice pieces Richard....
