Hi Guys,

Here’s a second batch of ‘Sneak Peeks’ to begin the week...

It’s a small but very useful, semi-circular, sandbag revetment designed to accommodate one of our 105mm Howitzers and its crew.

Even without the gun you can still use it to relax in or sit on top of or... even interrogate a prisoner.

This will be available in a couple of months time.

Have a great week and safe week... Enjoy!
Andy

Sandbag revetment and US gun Crew looks Amazing!!!!
locked and loaded Guys 😁👍

Yep the sandbag emplacement looks good as does the 105 and crew plus the add on figures and I like the new Radio operator too !

Steve
 
US gun crew look good.

You reckon ????

3 of them have clean white t-shirts and 3 have sleeveless vests to keep them warm !!!
Gunners should be 'sweaty and dirty' as they serve their 'fire breathing monsters' ..... just like how Andy depicted the Aussies :) :)

Then there is the figure looking through binoculars ..... so they can't be doing 'indirect fire', like most of it was in Vietnam.
If 'Charlie' was so close that direct fire was needed you wouldn't use binos, you'd see them !!!!!

The ammo number with 3 rounds over his shoulder look fine, you'd need muscles to carry 3 rounds on 105 like that, all brawn :)

Good to see the sandbag emplacement, it will sure make a firebase look good, so hope to see some feature in dioramas soon,

Radio operator wouldn't be used on the gun emplacement, commands come by wire to a loudspeaker from the Command Post, he looks more like a frontline 'grunt', but good looking figure :)

Hi Andy

Any chance of K&C making a couple of figures filling up sandbags for our collections ?

All the Best

Outstanding on the USMC gun and crew. Can’t wait for this release. No complaints here. It’s a beautiful set that will be added to my collection.

Hey Steve mate,
Have you ever filled a sandbag??^&grin^&grin I'd like a shilling for every bloody sandbag I filled in my 15 years. However a couple of diggers filling bags would be nice with a Corporal having a smoke watching them.{sm4}

Cheers Howard

Yep, it certainly brings on back pain real fast. {sm2}

Hopefully Andy will consider doing them !
