This would be my entry. A horrible model i may say.

As tankmen say, the best tank is the one that shoots first. During a conflict, even a split of a second would count. Machineries have always been designed for right-handed people. In a limited given space such as a Leo tank turret, a trained person would load the master gun faster if he manipulates its body and hands from the right to the left. For the above reasons, engineers design master guns to be loaded and armed by right to left movements . The loader has to be then on the left side of the gun and the master gunner goes nowwhere else but to the right. Both Commander and master gunner are able to rotate the turret, to target and to shoot to enemy, by sharing some equipment and machineries. Since aviation's flight-by wire technology and double equipment is not applied, gunner and commander have to be on the same - right -side of the turret. Let's see the arrangement of a non-operational LEO 1A4. Ammo storage (near number 11) forbids any potential internal access to driver's seat from the left side of the turret. In addition to that, there is not enough space to store all the ammunition on the turret, so an additional bunker is needed, preferably near by the loader - on the front and left side of the tank again. Not to mention the electrical batteries department, that has to be accessible too and there is no way to reach it from right side So the poor driver has to go to the right side and batteries to the left

Although the GB has ended, i am still working on my model. I would like to present it when finished, hopefully by the end of week. Shall i continue posting in this section or shall i ask from moderator to move my thread to vehicle's WIP section ??

After a long and forced absence , finally this weekend i was able to stay home and work on my model. Passengers cabin is ready, engine deparment is next. Hopefully, the model wil be finished by July the 4th.

Thanks a lot

Count me in too.

Box art is the reason i went for gunze's H43. On the other hand, if i had to rely on box art, i should had the wings painted in blue !!

That's my build. Back from 1982 , Matchbox's classique range number PK-452. Construction has started with minor fitting problems. According to Matchbox, this RR was painted in a 2-colours livery -> gloss black and semi-gloss wine red. Having not found yet any reference pictures of this particular car, i am a bit confused about Matchbox's definition of "wine red". Could have been that colour similar to H43 from Gunze? Or to the much darker red wine used by British railways ?. Does anybody have a clue ?
