Kiwis for Crete

A while back I attempted some fairly modest conversions to represent New Zealand soldiers during the operations on Crete. Predictably, the modest attempt produced modest results, and I may have a crack at
repainting and rebasing them sometime down the track. Most of the figures received a back pack but a few got head swaps and long trousers added also.

This group of Kiwis were based on the excellent Matchbox ANZAC set; back packs added plus helmets with netting covers where possible. I still believe that the theory for this conversion was sound, just the execution that was lacking.
