North shore regiment NWE 1944

[razor]

Watched a show theother day about the Canadian North shore regiment in Normandy.
Needed a break from my current Guards armoured scene, so thought I'd do this in the mean time.
Knocked this up with various Hornet parts. Insignia are from Peddinghaus.

Nice looking figure, came out really well.

That’s a fine piece of paintwork. Everything about this figure is spot-on, especially the shade of blanco on the webbing & the painting of the helmet scrim.
Superb!

 

[Scott Sheltz]

Very nice paint work!

Excellent figure and painting. You must have a stash of Hornet figures somewhere.

I recognise some of the figure parts you've used, Paul - legs are from the British MP directing traffic?

I wish, good British figures are so few compared to other nations.

Too kind as always Mario.
Yeah oddly for soldiers i don't arm them very often, as too which was my last your memory is probably better than mine.
The sling is a etched brass one from Inside the Armour, I think they are oop now.
