'Airfix' WW2 Italians - Conversions

Jeffers sent me a handful of clever Airfix conversions that he had carried out, which had been cast in metal. The base figure is the Airfix series one 8th Army soldier advancing. The helmet has changed, long sleeves added to the shirt and trousers replace the shorts. The large pack and all of the webbing has been changed too. I really like them.

Here is what they look like with a dab of paint on them:
The metal casting was done by John Holt of Warrior Figures.

  1. I haven’t painted mine yet! Mind you, they look good even if I do say so myself...
    Might be worth having a look at my blog https://battle77.blogspot.com/...
