Western Desert Force #2

I've been away for longer than I thought, far longer. I have been working on my version of the Western Desert Force but also doing lots of other things, some of which included real life stuff. Anyways I can report great success on all fronts including the completion of O'Connors' gang of reprobates.

As always I have used toys from a variety of manufacturers. Most of whose models are first class but there are one or two who incurred my displeasure as to the quality, fit and ease of construction of their product. These were a minority thankfully; only occasionally did I reach for a hammer........

I've broken the force down into four parts: HQ & Artillery and Armour & Support Group. Today's offering is the HQ plus corps assets and the corps artillery. The WDF had a LOT of artillery. I imagine to compensate for the lack of infantry but also because the British artillery was consistently excellent. Gotta feel sorry for those Italians.
