That's brilliant Adrian! The Dakota is excellent & the figures are so well painted - your eyes must have been begging for mercy! 
A fitting tribute to brave chaps.

Hi Adrian
The para address by Ike turned out perfectly - great work!
Where did you get the paras?
Excellent stuff 5 *s

Brilliant job Adrian. It's all great but it's strange how small details stand out, for me the canvas roof on the truck is very effective.Comment

Fantastic Ade I look forward to seeing this in the flesh at Telford cheers JohnComment

Thanks all for the great comments, I'm glad you all like it. I've just spotted that Ike has a gap in the rear of his trousers and his hair isn't actually painted !!! haha oh well luckily I made it so all the figures are removable as they are on metal pins.

The roof of the truck was just old fashioned base coat, pour on a wash and then dry brush, simple but it worked out alright.

The kit should have come with 9 Para's but there were only six in it when I got it home, another member of our club had then same kit and wasn't going to use his figure so I swapped mechanic's for Para's, I had intended to do double the amount of Para's but couldn't source any more in the same scale, Tamiya's as I posted else where are much smaller.
Anyway, I hope it gets space at Telford as I really want people to see it
