US Tank Crewman


An Elheim/TQD Castings figure purchased on-line from Battlescape. The set contained 5 relaxing WWII US Tankers in standing poses. I found that all of the figures were too short to be considered 1/72 scale and were awkwardly proportioned having legs that appeard to me to be too short. The figure above has been put through some surgery to have his legs lengthened by approximately 1 mm which is marginally annoying, but not a significant problem.

Given the difficulty in sourcing nicely sculped tank crewman in 1/72 scale in Australia I would have to say that the figures are good. It is a pity that Eureka Miniatures no longer manufacture the AB 1/76 scale figures under liscence.

Another German Vehicle


Dragon Mid Production Tiger 1 with loaders hatch and and spare track links from Revel. I have detailed the hatch but am still to sctatch build the track link brackets. I also opened up the vision slits with a razor saw.

Some images of my work in progress M4 from Dragon. Starting to come together.
