Hello Folks

Gordon

Very nice. Would make a nice vignette of allied troops walking through the rubble of a European town following D Day. You are to be congratulated of producing models of British troops
rather than the usual plethora of Germans. While delighted to see British figures I’m afraid I do have a couple of minor quibbles (rivet counting?) :- the figure carrying the Bren (the Bren no.1) should be carrying the small Bren wallet, the helmet on the figure with the mortar looks a little wide and both figures should be wearing utility battle dress with exposed buttons and no pocket pleats (of course could be painted wearing denims).
If they were Commonwealth (Canada) it would have been good to see them in the Mk III helmet
As I said these are small complaints (could easily be corrected by an modeller worth his salt) and do not in any way distract from a pair of lovely figures.
