I have speculated the difference these could have made had there been a Regiment supporting 8th Div 2nd AIF in Malaya.  A Sqn per Brigade and Trp per Battalion, or maybe even Company and Platoon instead of Squadron and Troop i.e. four to six embedded in each Infantry Btn.

Looking back on the Police figure, which is again a very good cross kit with the arms, my first impression of the head

General Melchett

Lurch is the same problem. Although I came across a drawing of the original Addams family from the New Yorker and Lurch was wearing a green suit. Not sure if that was authentic.
I haven’t tried a satin type clear coat for Morticia’s hair yet. I haven’t tried some acrylic spray of the shelf I may try. Lots of touch up to go yet.

That Morticia is an awesome figure. Painting Blacks on blacks on blacks is difficult for the best figure painters.

I have leftover tires and chrome wheels from the 1/24th Pinto I used on the  Schibblemobil that look like nice fat sand tires on the jeep. I’ve had to jack up the suspension to make it fit.
I’m nuts. I’m supposed to have this finished for our club’s contest on Saturday. My wife threw her back out and I’ve got dr appointments all week. And now I have to paint a cop! We shall see what happens!

Glorious, grimy goodness  :-*

Just needs a few more crewmen.  ;)

Maybe he has drawn the short straw? He has to stay with the vehicle and keep an eye peeled for officers. (The rest of the SP's crew have bunked off for a smoko.)

Great model BT, and perfect backstory.   :smiley:

Those that have served will appreciate with a knowing, wry smile just how probably the fate of the Boondi actually was.  Nothing, not even light itself, escapes the clutches of the QM’s department - and that every branch of service has its own version of that particular bureaucratic singularity!  ;)
