Description
Besides his mug of hot tea, Tommy will have a decent choice of small arms & support weapons. not all the weapons are finished, some like the bren, Vickers K & PIAT need reworking, they were done with booleans & are too heavy on polygons. On the left, top to Bottom: Sten MkV ( for the Paras, with No4 rifle front sight, wood stock, pistol grip & fore grip), Owens Gun MkII (Aussie)found mostly in the far east was used mostly by the aussies but was also appreciated by the tommies, Lee Enfield No4 rifle, also a must for the paras, cant use Panko's SMLE(small magasine lee enfield) for the paras or as a rule of thumb for NW Europe, the mags werent compatible with the No. 4 rifle, Bren Gun MkII, it is missing both the stock & barrel handles & the PIAT (grenade launcher, had HE & AT grenades, unlike the bazooka it had no back blast, so didn't give away your position & was great for house to house clearing) with ammo & ammo case. On the right, M2 aviation 50 cal & Vickers K gun (also known as the Vickers GO, for gas operated), as used by 2 very, very special groups of men, the LRDG & the SAS (I was planning on making a Para Recce Jeep, using the Vikers K gun .303 cal, so the jeep could have doubled both for Europe & North Africa, also the reason for the .50 cal. Up coming weapons: The Enfield No5 jungle Carbine, the Boys Anti Tank 50 cal ifle & the Vickers (Maxim type Mg). I don't think I'll be making an SMLE or the Webley & Enfield pistols & Thompson smg, as Panko produces a very beautiful SMLE & both pistols, & colt 45 1911 & Thompson & I already have them. If you think of a brit small arms that would be worth having, drop me a line. Thanks for looking & as usual comments are welcome.

Now this is an area that I don't know enough about to really make a helpful comment. Sure am impressed with the amount of modeling that you've accomplished in such a fairly short amount of time. Well done, Sir!

I'm gobsmacked.....brilliant work, excellent detail, simply everthing you are producing is so,so needed on the Rendo battlefield. You should change your username to 'Lord Beaverbrooke' or 'The Quartermaster General' :)
