RNAS Lanchester armoured car. 1/35 Copper State Models

Recommended Posts

This is Copper State Model's lovely RNAS armoured car. The figure is also by CSM, stowage from Value Gear & spare bucket. Went together nicely, only hindered by my reluctance to follow the instructions. Paint used was Revell acrylic Hellgrau, weathered using oil paints, Mig pigments, silver pencil. The last photo shows the size comparison with Roden's Rolls Royce armoured car.

 

Any comments, observations & criticisms welcome.

Excellent job on the A/C Pete. Nicely weathered and the figure looks good too.

Lovely work Pete. The figure looks great - I must try some of CSM's figures at some point, they look to be nicely sculpted.

Thanks guys. The figures are very well detailed, picked them both up from the CSM stall at Telford last year.

Hi Pete,

Ignoring the 'problem' of the blocked doors, that's a little beauty. And I'd love to see the figure in close-up. He looks to be exceptionally good.

 

Rearguards,

Badder

Thanks Badder. I've moved the storage so the crew can get in. The CSM figures are great, natural poses with great detail. In the photos he's far enough away to look decent but not too close to show up any inadequacies in my painting!

Very nice work, excellent weathering!

 

I also did this kit some months ago (I showed it here too) and I think Copper State really are very good in injection moulding. This results in a relatively small amount of parts as many details are integrated which would be separate parts in other kits.

 

Their Romfell Panzerwagen which they just released is currently shipped, can't wait to have it in my hands.

Thanks for the kind words. A more Tamiya approach to the engineering of the kit than Dragon & all the more welcome. 

 

Will look out for the Panzerwagen, with luck CSM will be at Telford again
