Sometime ago Taesung Harmms asked for help on Armorama to research Commonwealth Tanker uniforms in the North African Campaign. Well here at last are the fruits of that research.
The figures set 5th Royal Tank Regiment, 7th Armoured Division 1942 portrays two tankers in mixed dress.

While both wear shorts, one wears the Battledress blouse while the seated figure wears a pullover.

More pics and info on prices etc when we get them.

I've known about these for a while, but hadn't seen the finished sculpt, nor did I know who the box-artist would be - hoped it was Calvin, suspected might be Arthur. So... I'm really stoked to see it was Calvin BTW, for those wondering about the colour mixes for the BD & KD gear, check out Calvin's blog. I wonder what headgear the other set of heads wear... perhaps MkII helmets, but hopefully an officer's cap for the standing figure Really looking forward to this release. Rudi
