Nice to see so many different finishing schemes provided for. Some of those look great.

BTW I think this thread has been set up with an auto delete on any phrase relating to wishing it was in 1/thirty wotsit scale.

Give it time Matt, it has not been live that long.



That image had my spirits soaring to the heavens and then I
saw the Word, the word that is "braille" and my heart dropped, my spirit crep under the soles of my feet and my tongue spoke the word 'Dang'...
oh if it had only been in 1/35th scale ....
By popular demand it is Friday evening after all
Cool news, even if it isn't "my" scale

Why not 1/35 to fit with the figure sets they already have in the scale?

Regardless of SCALE it is an armoured Car and the Austin actually was used to great affect in the Amiens battle in 1918. They were towed through the trench system and were released and wrecked havoc (As much as 12-15 cars can do) behind enemy lines. Read the story it's very good.
