I can't wait to see the Miniart US tank crew passing thru your hands. I too want to use the summer style figures from them. I would have liked to do the US tank crew in action from Miniart but they were sold out. The .50 cal gunner in particular has a sublime pose.

Excellent! Those Miniart sets are very nice. I have scooped up a couple of the British and German tank crew sets.

Thanks Ian...........just tried making up a couple that i thought might be suitable pose wise and they`re about as much use as an ashtray on a motorbike ............i`m not gonna go down the route of canablising them unnecessarily so i`ll just have to see what happens

Cheers Robbo.............it`s not the painting i`m bothered about it`s just non of them fit anywhere, i took a gamble but it didn`t pay off...........lessons learnt and i dare say they will fit on another build at some point

Well,that's too bad,Buddy. I'm sure you'll find a use for them later. On a more pleasant note, both the base and the tank look oresome.

They don't have to be inside the tank, can't you use the standing figures from the winter set next to or on the tank?

LOL........ Well i think i`ve found a home for one figgie on the tank so far, just added an additional ammo can for that arm to rest on........the rest of his body parts seem to fit ok but i think i need somat under his butt to make it look like he`s sitting a bit better.........probably a small folded tarp which i can mold to his shape when the tarp is wet...
Shame i can`t get anything in the gunners hatch as there is no room with the .50 cal there.........i`ll see what pans out
