Elements of the 79th Armoured Division 3d printed to 10mm scale. Some bits need work - the SBG bridgelayer especially - and the fascine sled needs reprinting as the towing arms broke cleaning up support.

They do look good, and a favourite subject of mine.

The DD Sherman does look a bit odd, the screens look very angular, not like fabric. But all the Churchill variants are cool, I particularly like the AVRE with the wading funnels / exhausts

Agreed, the DD is from a different source, and does look odd. I intend to cover it in putty & fingerprints...

The AVREs are superb, and there are a multitude of versions, wading gear, track guards, Mk.III or IV turrets, etc. And they DO have the hull gunner's sliding hatch & the hull side brackets & clamps.

Is that a panjandrum in there?

Fantastic models.

I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.
