Truly extraordinary bit of modelling that. So evocative. 

 

Well thank you Tony. As always in this build, I need to divert some of the praise to the guys and gals at ICM. All I did was build and paint it. It is virtually OOB.

Michelangelo: “What, David? Well, yeah, I have to give credit to Luigi and the lads up at the marble quarry. All I did was chip a few bits off.” 😁

Hi Bertie. That really is superb. And lovely to see something different again! Well done. :worthy:

Kind regards,

Stix

 

Thank you Stix, I appreciate what you say there. In my book 'something different' is worth striving for after my lifetime of Spitfires etc and Shermans etc.

Very nice! That really evokes the spirit. But right hand drive?

Thanks Ian.

 

I appreciate you attention to detail. It's RHD because it's a Taxi. The driver can easily hop out onto the pavement to attend to his passengers and help them board and alight and so on. In 1914, taxi drivers were a new thing and still polite. :winkgrin:
