I like the shape.
What size is it though?
Any chance of a pic against a 28mm figure?

the "sponsons" look rather like hull enlargements to accomodate the gear.
From a technical püoint of View it does make sense

what appears difficult is the firing slit under the drivers' vision slit - however there were a lot of interwar tanks that were designed without operating crew in mind  :D

I could not find it on their webpage.  Can you please tell me where it is?  Thank you.

I finally finished molding all the parts and put one together to show you guys. We will be putting up a notice on our web page at rafm.com soon about a pre-order. Since the hull is outsourced (not produced by us) it would be nice to get some numbers in advance.

We are looking at 15 to 16 dollars each. We don't have much to compare with it and this is our first package that will be using resin bought from another supplier. I was a little surprised by the price for it myself as most people say resin is cheep.

I'll be ordering a couple of these but I might stick a bigger piece of ordnance on the front  ;).

Any chance of a picture with a figure for scale?

One word.... Yummy!

Really these are great and really capture the essence of VSF vehicles i.e. a big vehicle to move a small gun!

This will also go with the ironclad stuff as well.

When are they going to be available?

cheers
Fuzzy. :D
Crikey, sir. I'm looking forward to today. Up diddly up, down diddly
down, whoops, poop, twiddly dee - decent scrap with the fiendish Red
Baron - bit of a jolly old crash landing behind enemy lines - capture,
torture, escape, and then back home in time for tea and medals.

The price is reasonable!

I would want one or two of them myself, I don't think the price is unreasonable either.

Resin is, the rubber though isn't and you use a lot more rubber with resin casting than metal etc. Also depends on the type of resin.
