Re: Splash's workbench
I have been having fun over on the Blitz GB and did a scratch build conversion of a Churchill tank to a 3in Gun Carriage.

Very cool. What a beast! In that configuration you can really see the WW1 influenced trench monster.

It’s a shame it was not the success they thought it would have been, as it was out of date before it was finished.gnomemeansgnome wrote:Very cool. What a beast! In that configuration you can really see the WW1 influenced trench monster.

Good news I have been successful in bidding on 100 6mm scale AFV’s on eBay, these should look good on the top deck of the LST.

Oh wow, those are great little vehicles and in white metal too - reminds me of my old wargames pieces from the 70's.
