First Tank Platoon Done

I have to say, it feel pretty good the I finally have my first tank platoon done.  It only took a couple of painting sessions to get them done, but I was nervous to start them because I really wanted them to look good.

Well now I'm done, and I'm very happy with how they look.

Now that I have all that said...

Based on the Sicily campaign Operation Husky and using our Canadian 1st Infantry Brigade
Here's a link to the force org that I used - Juno Beach Center - Canadian Army units in Sicily

This is my...

12th Armoured Regiment (Régiment de Trois-Rivière)
Canadian 1st Armoured Brigade

C Squadron - Somewhere in Italy 1943

I based them from tank markings that I found online that served in the Italy/Sicily campaign during August to December 1943

Here's a link to a web site the is just amazing for Canadian tank markings - Armoured Acorn

While that being said, here you go.















Here are the close ups...

Here you go!  I can't wait to use them in a game.

Good night
