Managed to get some more kit for my Battlegroup Tobruk project finished , some Armourfast Valentines and some Early War Miniatures Vickers 15mm gunned light tanks .My first Armourfast and they are quite good really for wargamers would take alot of work to get to display models but nice the EWM models are really nice ,all the stowage is EWM as well .

Section of 3 Valentines

and a spare (armourfast are 2 to a box)

the Vickers light tank beefed up to the 15mm AT version ? 

Battlegroup Tobruk -Vickers tanks

Received another order from EWM of Vickers tanks and some Armourfast Valantines plus bits of stowage and crew.The vickers are lovely little models fitted together in a couple of minutes ,no flash ,told lines etc really nice each one came with different bits of stowage for each one included as well .Inow have evrything I need (i think) as I received my last bits from SHQ as well .10/10

Another 3 trucks finished ,this time Tillys from any scale models and another Dingo from early war miniatures ,the transports will be for my heavy weapons teams and the Dingo will be my recon officer . I have ordered some more tanks from EWM and I'm still waiting for a order from SHQ (not happy with the service from SHQ this time) and then I should have every thing I need just need to get them built and painted along with my PSC 25pdrs and that'll be Tobruk finished .
