    So I’m hijacking my own thread, but as a side build I’ve been working on a Canadian LAV 3. This is from trumpeter. Here is the finished product. I was impressed with the quality of this kit. I did not apply the decals which were used in Afghanistan. Scott

    Very interesting Brad, I googled to see what I could find and I did find some YouTube videos that purport to show ft-17s the Germans left on the coast. There were other images of the the turrets having been incorporated by the Germans into the Atlantic wall

    I’m not certain but it’s a great suggestion - I thought white was an odd interior colour but maybe it was intended to make things as visible as possible?
  20. Haliburton
    A small start on the interior.

    Patrick I checked the Wikipedia reference and you are right - Lithuania in 1925. Here is a shot of them in Manchuria 1932 with the Japanese. This must have been quite a revenue generator for Renault - these tanks ended up pretty much everywhere.

    A preview of the kit itself

    So following from the Big Bertha build I’m moving in the opposite direction with this WW1 build. The tiniest of tanks. Originating in 1917 as a prototype it was put into service by France in March, 1918 and by November of that same year 3530 had been produced. Quite a remarkable production effort, mind you, as I said, this beastie is tiny! Interestingly FT-17s were used by 27 countries including the US, China, and the Soviet Union and served in multiple conflicts including both world wars as well as the Russian civil war. It had a nickname ‘the mosquito’ with the idea I believe that these little units could ‘swarm’ the enemy. I think my biggest challenge with this build will be the tiny parts. Some photos of the real thing below. Scott

    Chaaaarge! Well done O.C.
  25. Haliburton
    Agree Mark, nice work RGL - it brings Zumwalt to life
  26. Haliburton
    Thank you Rik! thanks also Patrick, CDW and O.C, Egilman, RGL and all others for your valuable inputs and likes. I find the historical discussion just as engaging as the build! Scott

    Here’s a sideshot that better shows the difference in size.

    Hi folks, while I have not yet reworked the colour of the shell and there will be a tad more weathering to follow I’m going to call this one a wrap. Photos are below and I’ve including a shot with my other WW1 builds beside Bertha to provide a sense of scale. All are 1/35. Alongside Bertha in the last shot are the Krupp 21 cm Morser, mark iv and whippet tanks. Thanks so much for looking in! Scott

    I suppose each generation has its ‘trendy’ clothes that become cringeworthy when one looks back - and then those subtle changes the fashion industry creates to pressure people to go out and “update” their wardrobes (e.g. thin ties, wide ties and back to thin ties. Wefalck that you for the input on the shells, it is appreciated.

    Looking good!
