In the Navy : Operation Sealion

Despite or perhaps because of the apocalyptic sense of things at the moment I have a real mojo for painting. Again a couple of bits I have been working on for a while which got finished off yesterday.
 Some Warlord British sailors from their Sealion range.
An officers transport car for the RCW, the driver a converted English gunner.....really he just needed the fuzzy hat 🙂 for those interested it is a 1914 Stutz so perhaps imported before the war and then brought into service

    Very nice work, Matt. Love the car and didn't realize the Sealion figures from Warlord - very cool.

      Thanks Stew I suspect many of us will be spending more time painting in the next few months....may not be a bad thing as the lead mountain is pretty huge
