Armour M4A2 With Sandshield 2014 model from GHQ - truly excellent Valentine Mk II A fine model from GHQ This is the ISM version.  The body is copied from GHQ's Bishop (may be from one of the other GHQ Valentine models, but I don't have them, so I don't know...) Valentine Mk IX H&R Model Valentine (some other Mark) H&R Model Covenanter The Covenanter was an early British cruiser tank.  It was in generally an abject failure; it was never deployed in a combat role outside Britain, despite over 1700 built.  This model is from Armstrong, and is quite nice. GHQ A-9 Cruiser Tank GHQ A-10 Cruiser Tank GHQ A-13 Cruiser Tank Four models of the A-13 with various desert markings GHQ Crusader I Four models of the Crusader I in various desert paint schemes Crusader This model is from CinC.  It is not up to the same standards of the GHQ model (though this was a used one, and not straight out of the package) Another version of the CinC model, this of the Crusader II Matilda II GHQ's Matilda Infantry Tank.  These models suffered an unpleasant accident when sealing -- I accidentally grabbed the aircraft gray than the dullcote.  I repainted them, but they didn't come out great. Here are a series of very, very old GHQ Matildas, dating back to the early 1970s, I believe.  I tried out three different paint schemes.  They don't compare well with their modern counterparts -- the shape is off, and the barrels are far too weak. M3 Stuart The famous "Honey" of desert service, in several paint schemes M3 Grant An older GHQ model, well-pitted with age when acquired.  One of the worst paint jobs on this site. Several other versions, with far better paint jobs This one has crude unit markings painted on.  Future models will have GHQ decals instead. A whole horde of Grants (actually a platoon-scale early 1942 battalion) MkVIB Light Tank A fine GHQ model.  Also suffered from an inadverent priming... Another, better-painted version MK VI AA Version GHQ Version Morris Armoured Car From GHQ, painted with the caunter camo scheme Morris Armoured Car GHQ model with 2lb AT gun Humber Scout Car Mk II GHQ model in two different paint jobs GHQ Humber Scout Car Mk IV Another version, by one of the British manufacturers, not really in the same league as its GHQ equivalent Daimler Scout Car H&R model India Pattern Carrier Mk II GHQ Model Lloyd Carrier From Armstrong Models, with and without canvas cover Bren Carrier ISM Model Older GHQ Bren Carriers A bit rougher than their newer items Various Bren Carriers

Artillery 2lber AT Gun A good model from GHQ. One problem, though -- it has a seat for a crewman, but no crewman molded on. Another version 6lber AT Gun An Armstrong Model Bishop Self-Propelled Gun An interim self-propelled 25lber on a Valentine chassis, this version from GHQ More Bishops, these from CinC And these from GHQ 25lb Guns These are very old GHQ models -- dating from the early 1970s, along with the current GHQ 8th Army artillery crews These are the newer versions, complete with Quad and limber, but no crews as of yet. 4.5" Guns Manufacturer unknown, gun crews from GHQ Deacon Self-Propelled AT Guns From one of the UK manufacturers This is the Masters of Military 3D printed version Bofors 40mm AA Gun CinC model, with GHQ halftrack infantry for crewmen Same models, mounted on bases Mk VI AA Pewtercraft Model

Infantry GHQ's 3" Mortar Team More modern version UK GHQ Vickers Team The more modern version UK Boys Anti-Tank Rifle Team The more modern version GHQ Infantry GHQ's individual UK infantry in tropical dress.  The bases are play sand with white glue, repeatedly washed with varying colors.  I'm not entriely happed with the colors, but they'll do for now. The following are the same models, done in a slightly different style, but including the more recent Bren gunner

Soft Skin Vehicles LRDG Land Rover An excellent model, along with infantry, from H&R 6lber Portee An interesting model from Armstrong Miniatures. Morris 15CWT Truck GHQ Model UK 15CWT Trucks From Armstrong Models, both with and without canvas UK 15CWT Radio Truck From Armstrong Models Thornycroft 4x6 GHQ model Morris 4x6 Prime Mover GHQ Model India Pattern Wheeled Carrier From Armstrong Models Spider Gun Tractor From Armstrong Quad Gun Tractor From Stevens International, which I believe just re-packaged Skytrex models. Dorchester Armoured Command Vehicle Manufacturer unknown

Aircraft Of The Desert War Hawker Hurricane IID Scotia model of the ground attack aircraft.  The paint job really didn't work out.
