  1. great work, scratchbuilding is so much more satisfying than just building a kit imho!
  2. in one of the old mafva tankettes there are 3 views
  3. ah great news thanks for your help
  4. thanks email with pics attached sent i hope they are ok shaun
  5. tried that before on another forum and spent ages getting no where, not got the time to muck about with it, i am sure if they want them they will email me.
  6. i went to the local to me warag (somerset) show and a chap i have known for years has just got a haflinger so i took some pics, if any one want any of the pics just email me [email protected] thanks
  7. splendid job on that, i know other people have done the conversion on the esci or dragon kit. i did find the some of the airfix parts were wrong the cupola for one and the instructions are not too clever either. i have heard that the actual bridge is postwar as well though! but only experts will notice!
  8. nice job, i used the same truck for my tank transporter but can't upload pics sadly.
  9. i keep watching old youtube footage hoping one day to see one in films of the time but non as yet. mind you i have spotted several vehicles that were rare like the neptune at walcheren amongst others, at least now you can stop the film and see things that are only glimpsed for mere miliseconds.
  10. the churchill bridge is well known but i have delayed doing an ark until i see a pic of it in use, sadly one model i have had lots of calls for but unwilling to spend the time on something only used in training, churchill avre & sbg as well as churchill avlb i already have made for my collection, plenty of info on them. i would love to see the ark in nwe, some of the ones supposed to be in france are the italian pattern ones which are also widely known about.
  11. did the uk pattern ark ever see service, according to the tank museum they never left the uk. no pics or footage has emerged of them except in uk training.
  12. there is a picture of a diamond t 920 crane in us army use on it's side during ww2probably tried lifting too much. i am surprised how many get the 980 tank transporter truck mixed up with the smaller 920 6x6 version, lots of books and modelers get it wrong sadly, like corgi for one! interesting topic though.
  13. coz it is one of my gb ww2 tank crew figs, but i can't post pics sadly. i have had several of my models pirated over the years so as you can imagine i get a bit twitchy about it! not a major problem but it is painted well. thanks
  14. nice model, well made, are you sure that is a wee friends fig?
  15. most of the futter plans are now on the interweb, you would need to have them printed out at the right scale though.
