Been away from the bench for a couple of months, and this was a great way to get back in the swing of things. Here I present my attempt at the Vespid 1:72 Comet 1B finished as “Cambrai” of 3 RTR in Hong Kong around 1950. Brushed painted with Tamiya Acrylics. Build thread can be found here: Bit fiddly in places but a lot of fun. Thanks for looking.- 11 replies

I’ve been absent from the model bench for the last couple of months due to some travel for work and other life issues. Just couldn’t get back to finishing my Meng Whippet, so thought I would try my hand at something a little smaller in scale. Picked this up last week. Not tried one of their kits before, looks pretty good at first glance. There is rather an extensive decal sheet for such a small kit. And some goodies. My plan is to compete it as a 3RTR tank based in Hong Kong.

Dear fellow Britmodellers, this is the brand-new 1/72 Vespid Models A34 Comet tank, in markings of 3rd Royal Tank Regiment, 29th Armoured Brigade, 11th Armoured Division (from the box). I added a towing cable from my spares box and antenna on the turret. The model was painted with Gunze/Mr.Hobby acrylics, weathering with artist's oils and pastel chalks. Photographs by Wolfgang Rabel. For the first time, the A34 is available as an injection-moulded kit in 1/72. I had never heard of Vespid Models before, and was pleasantly surprised by the quality and fit of parts. Even the link & length tracks, which often cause me troubles, were relatively easy to assemble. My boxing contained a metal gun barrel and photo-etch parts. Thank you for your interest, best greetings from Vienna! Roman .
