Coming along nicely! Mike.

Nicely done! Good work with the lighting too. Mike.

Platz are co-operating with AFV Club on this - LINK. It'll be interesting to see how accurate in it's fundamentals this kit is as AFV Club have only tooled the later versions so far. I'm guessing your referring to the discussion on Armorama? LINK. In it Ossie262 does write that the kit's based on the example at Bovington. Of, course, since this is a GuP kit there will be those who won't touch it with bargepole no matter how accurate it might be! Mike.

Nice, very nice. Mike.

Great result with the wheels and lower hull - they look very good indeed! Can't wait to see what you can do with the rest of the kit. Mike.

Looks really good - love the paintwork! Mike.

Great stuff - nothing wrong with a "What-If"!! Mike.

Now I do like that! Mike.

Nicely done! Mike.

Nice rendition of a rarely seen subject! Mike.

Cross post from the Rumourmonger section: Aoshima 1/700 HMS Exeter in Java Sea condition: LINK. Mike.

Aoshima have publically acknowledged that they're doing the Exeter: LINK. Early shots: Either the hull's a bit bendy, or the surface it's sitting on isn't flat! Looks not too bad anyway - it can certainly gives a better basis than the old and difficult to find Matchbox kit. Trumpeter have announced that they're going to do both the Exeter and the York in 1/350, so this pre-empts any possible 1/700 kit from them. Also fits another trait for many of the non-Japanese subjects in the waterline range - sunk by the IJN! Mike.

Nicely done! Mike.

Awesome! Mike.
