Finishing a Corsec 1/56th scale LCVP
« on: June 15, 2018, 12:29:08 AM »
OK, I’m a bit slow on the workbench. A few months back I purchased three 1/56th scale LCVP kits from Coresec Engineering for a D-Day scenario.  The kits are in laser cut MDF and plasticard. The laser cuts are nice and clean, and all the pieces separate easily for assembly.

I used LVT crew figures from Company B:

Gun tub MG crew: https://company-b-models-and-miniatures.myshopify.com/collections/crews-for-afvs/products/miniatures-usn-lvta-tub-gunners2?variant=15950897667

General LVT crew: https://company-b-models-and-miniatures.myshopify.com/products/miniatures-usn-lvta-4-crew-2?variant=15950880835

And ship fittings in 1/48 and O-scale from ebay, and used Woodland Scenics transfers for the ship ID numbers. Too bad I can’t find the proper scale-sized rope fenders and such as well, but I’m happy with how it turned out!








Here's the old blog on the initial build: https://sbminisguy.wordpress.com/2017/10/17/building-a-corsec-156th-scale-lcvp/

Cheers!

Play the game, not the players!

Thanks! I also used small magnets on the assault ramp, so I can lower it or close it during a game.
