.....the favour turned out to be the Tamiya 1:35 British Universal Carrier Crew and weapons (he said he'll paint the vehicle himself) but the crew I sorted because he's a friend!
1:35 scale is approx 54mm scale........

1:35 Scale Painted Tamiya Universal Carrier Crew.
My friend Vinnie rather sneakily caught me in a good mood (we were in Burger King) and handed me a box and asked a favour...........

20mm Painted WW2 British Infantry Platoon.
British infantry platoon painted up for the What If? Operation Sealion gaming, figures are mostly SHQ (which were awful sculpts, so much flash and distortion........ ) and some Blitz Miniatures (good stuff)...
....picture quality is the usual poor quality but I think it's for the best as these are not Ray's best work!

Dudley Constable, 20mm Operation Sealion Scenery so far....
Have started sorting out my What If? Operation Sealion table for a game, it's a wargaming set up rather than a dedicated display like some of the beauties you see at shows. Only civilians and some home guard have been placed on the table, the area is in a bit of crisis after what they believe are random bombings of the area.
The year is 1941.......Hitler hasn't invaded Russia, the French fleet ended up in German hands, only 3,000 troops got away at Dunkirk, Germany has not Allied with the Japanese, the United States have not entered the war, the Luftwaffe concentrated on;y on the RAF and airfields etc......
Dudley Constable is situated on the south coast of England, a picturesque, quiet corner of England but for how long......
No real close up shots as most of the figures have been seen before but if you want close ups Mr. De Mille can be contacted and they can be arranged....

Things that may make a Wargamer cry 1.
Walking up the garden last night from the Man Cave with a fair amount of resin to wash, had a problem with a gate and and possibly some duck, turkey and chicken faeces and a broom and the result is that British forces during Operation Sealion will be sorely lacking in armour and transport (should be able to salvage one or two pieces), not the first time for me (a mate of mine dropped a box of painted conquistador cavalry, never had the heart to replace them) or other wagamers I believe but still a kick in the crackers.
The moral, keep your eyes out for poultry shit and have yourselves a good weekend.

20mm Painted WW2 British Royal Navy Shore Party.
A WW2 British royal navy shore party from Elheim figures http://www.elhiemfigures.com/british_63.html , consisting of : 1 RN officer with revolver, 1 RN rating with Lancaster SMG and 4 RN ratings with SMLE in square rigs.
These will look good among all the khaki fighting the Germans for my What If? Operation Sealion skirmish game, will need to find a Royal Navy admiral type figure as I have just found a WREN (Women's Royal Naval Service) figure from the SGTS' Mess range of figures to add to the masses.
Some pictures with some size comparison shots included.
