Wagtail Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 So here's another slightly out the box one from me. Underneath it's the Revell 1/35 German Luchs with a bit of scratch build added to make my rendition of a British NBC Recce vehicle. Originally gifted as a stop gap by Germany I had a look on line and these vehicles have gone through various reincarnations with storage bins plus bits and bobs added and removed since we had them around the start of our journey over to the big sand pit. I know the markings and exact configuration may not be 100% but it achieves the overall feel I was after. This one comes complete with half of Salisbury Plain under it and definitely needs a trip to the wash down! The additional storage boxes were a few I had left over from the Takom FV432 and anything in white was scratch built from plasticard. Hope it's ok and thanks for looking 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buzby061 Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Very nice indeed. I didn’t know the British Army operated the Fuchs, it’s an education on this forum. Pete 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wagtail Posted February 9, 2018 Author Share Posted February 9, 2018 Thanks, they only ever had 11 of them all in the NBC Recce role as a stop gap originally. They've seen service with the RAF and the Army http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2016/05/02/army-brings-back-sniffer-vehicles-for-chemical-weapons-threat/ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
