Tanks again I'm afraid and why not, the battle against the flake will not end !
This is my second batch of Crusaders and as with previous ones I have gone for a plain look representing the second batch of the tanks that arrived in late 1941.
The tanks as before are from Blitzkrieg Miniatures with a tank commander from the Perrys Miniatures range, this figure actually comes as a standing figure so I cut it in half to go in the tank.
There is a slight sheen on the tanks from the gallons of varnish ! Points wise I'm claiming 63, 3 x 20 for the tanks and 3 for the tank commander.
Final picture is a group shot of the six Crusaders together. Next week it will be three Mark VI Light Tanks, still got some Foundry Men at Arms on the go on the side.
Regards Ken
I really love your tanks, bet they are a joy on the battle field. Top work

Great work Ken! The last photo with the armour all lined up is really cool.
ReplyDeleteAnd take THAT, #Flakegate!
Many thanks Greg, will do an all in pic at the end too 👍
DeleteFabulous looking tanks despite your flake gate disaster! But when on earth does one need six 28mm tanks?
ReplyDeleteThe question should be, why dont you need more than 6 28mm tanks all the time 🤔 we do big games on big tables, I already have 3 Crusaders so this is actually 9, plus the 50 plus other tanks !
DeleteWow, another terrific entry of lovely clankers. Wonderful work Ken. You must have a huge vehicle park for all these models. Amazing.
ReplyDeleteThanks Curt, stacks of Really Useful Boxes is the trick 👍
DeleteFantastic looking Crusaders!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
Cheers Iain 👍
DeleteNice tanks Ken :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Tamsin 👍
DeleteThose are as always great Iain. Congrats on charging through the flaking issues and producing such wonderful work. Looking forward to you King Tigers, oops army’s Mark VIbs! I want to see your tank force en masse.
ReplyDeleteMark VI Light Tanks are faster and more reliable 😉
DeleteLovely work yet again. Don't let the flaking get you down.
ReplyDeleteCheers Stuart, it's the slowing down that's the pain !
DeleteLovely stuff as ever Ken. I do have a soft spot for the MkVI so looking forwards to seeing what you are going to do.
ReplyDeleteMany thanks Paul, got to love a Mark VI 👍
DeleteGreat weathering on these! The scenic backdrop is gorgeous too
