Impressive John to say the least, I’ve only just now discovered this. Mad skills and I appreciate all the details you’ve added, how they were sourced, sorted and whatnot. Your mate should really feel rewarded by following along w the link.
How are you making out w acquiring the British Infantry gear/kit?
Cheers 
Dave 
Thanks for checking it out Dave and glad you like it. Yes he is keeping tabs on it and is enjoying watching it all come together.
I decided (after chatting with Andy about it all) that I would ease off on the kit stowage and just go with extra resin Jerrycans on the rear (2 on each side) and x1 large tarp I will knock up once the builds complete. I would have liked a 1/16th helmet and maybe some webbing but I didnt want to throw his money at it. I think the bits I add along with the kit boxes and cans should suffice.
Black dog do helmets but at over £10.00 for two seem a bit spensive.
Ok great. I actually have the old Verlinden 611 British Infantry 120mm, and I won’t be needing the figure’s kit (helmet, Enfield rifle, pack, ammo pouches etc). I’m more than willing to give this to you no worries only shipping, but being across the pond that is prbly just not worth it.
Happy to Help 
Dave
Thanks and cheers to both Dave & Keith, yeah, the issue with both will be the P & P … shame, but its just ramps the cost up sadly … I will just make do with what’s at hand and the tarps I will knock up.
Hallelujah….. track runs are done 
…. Assembled, and base coated in rattle can Matt black.
Process for these will be a coat or 2 of Tamiya dark iron, then MIG track wash …then some highlighting with graphite and Vallejo oily steel on raised areas
These will be in the vehicle SCC colour and added
The coil is for me to cut into and make rings for the recovery shackles
These ammo boxes and jerry cans will be in normal OD and highlighted with faded OD
And lastly, some overviews of the carrier with various bits and pieces added.
Looking good, John. A nice tight build, and your experience really shows.
Cheers
Dave
Thanks Dave @strongarden ….
Now have an overall cost of SCC 15 on it. It’s brought it altogether nicely now it’s one colour ….
Looks good all in green 
Making a start on the personal weapons and tools …
And some parts I forgot about 
… luckily it’s due another coat of paint
I have been getting on with bits and bobs on the carrier, but most of the major parts are fitted now, less tracks and side skirts for the idlers.
Lots of detail painting now … And tools on rear and ABAs are painted plus the third extinguisher.
Tow mount also to be fitted
It’s getting there
Bloody hell that driver’s space and the radio look stunning!
Thanks Sam…I went a bit deep into the detailing on this one, but it’s for a good cause so worth the effort
