Sherwood rangers yeomanry

[razor]

Being reading this excellent book by James Holland, following the experiences of the Sherwood rangers so I thought I would do my own tiny tribute.
An Alpine British tanker (I really wish they would do more) with a sombre looking Hornet head and Sten from the spare stash. All painted in Acrylics.


Thanks for looking.

Lovely job as always, Paul. Reminds me of a story my late father told me (he served in NW Europe 1944-45) , allegedly the Sherwood Rangers Yeomanry were the first allied troops to enter Germany due to a map-reading error.....
Also, the author lives not far from me & is an all-round top bloke, I've read quite a few of his WW2 books but the ones I found most enjoyable were his Jack Tanner novels.

Yeah I think it's his pipe, sadly I can take no credit for that, its down to the great Alpine sculpt.
