Hi Folks, I indicated to Poly I'd take a pic of this model completed by my friend Leroy Simpson and place here for viewing. Page 14 of the Men at Arms Series No 379, Armies in East Africa 1914-18. Crew are somewhere?



God Bless

I like it. I assume it's scratch-built. Might have a go at making one. I think I might be able to manage that, assuming I can scrounge some suitable materials.

Hi Poly

Yes it is scratched built. If you need any extra info please let me know and I'll ask Leroy.

What an amazing thing.  Not very different from the rockets which Col Congreve developed 100 years before!
They were all drawn to the Keep; the soldiers who brought death; the father and daughter fighting for life; the people who have always feared it; and the one man who knows its secret....

Any chance of seeing some of your Reivers? Helen would love to see them here or on the Steel Bonnets group :)

Hi

At the moment I don't have any. I'm considering 40 mm for this project.

Thanks for asking.
