Lanchester Mk.II (15mm)

Fitz:


This is my 1:100 scale (15mm) Lanchester Mk.II that I had printed in high-definition black acrylate by Shapeways.

The colour is supposed to be the British army's Deep Bronze Green, their standard peace-time colour for AFVs on home service during the interwar period. It's a colour that consistently defeats me; I can never seem to get close to it. Vallejo do a Bronze Green in their VMC range, but it's nothing like the army colour, being more like the colour of actual green bronze.

von Lucky:
Regardless, I think it looks great and the quality print shows of your design work nicely.

Etranger:
I misread the title as Lancaster Mark II!

Lovely bit of work. I reckon your interpretation of bronze green is pretty good, based on the somewhat dubious colour match from on prewar Dinky toys!

carlos marighela:
That's truly magnificent!

Ballardian:
Lovely model, as to a reasonable approximation of Bronze Green, a 50:50 mix of VMC Grey Green & Russian Uniform works, though is perhaps a little faded looking. The PSC British armour spray can is also an acceptable starting point.
