Assembled three Britannia Churchill Crocodile flame thrower tanks, the last of my resin kit backlog. Crew are also Britannia, while vehicle stowage is a combination of Sgts Mess, RAFM, and Britannia. The weather has turned and I doubt I'll get a chance to prime these before Spring!

Churchills and Cromwells
I finally assembled some Britannia kits I picked up second hand; they are the "older" versions of the models available today as the tracks came as separate metal castings, the Churchill IV's at least, are now made with an all resin hull and track assembly.
Group shot of all 8 tanks, assembled, stowage added, and ready to be primed. Stowage is from Sgts Mess, Britannia, and RAFM. Crew figures Britannia, with others to be added after painting:
Britannia Churchill IV's with 75mm main gun armament:

21st Panzer Division SPW 107 Half Tracks
I now have sufficient vehicles to complete the 1st Battalion, Panzer Grenadier Regiment 125 - along with a command half track. Vehicles are all from Ready to Roll, primed and ready for painting:
Left to right: SPW P107 Command Half Track for the Regimental HQ; a SPW P107 37mm HT and two SPW P107 half tracks for the 1st, 2nd and 3rd Companies, respectfully. Great models, very well cast and detailed. Will post once painted and crewed.
