Re: M5 half track

Thanks for that.

TBH the half track has fallen from view. We have our annual Show in a couple of weeks & I'm now focussed on The Sudan.

Scary looking chaps - the figures, i mean, not the gamers.
I'm sure the event will be a resounding success.

Re: M5 half track

Thanks, all.
TBH, the vehicle is so well made, it would be an effort to paint it badly.

It was a one off sprue from the Plastic Soldier Company I've had for a while. I'd possibly like more but I'll resist - the infantry companies h...
