Burford-Kegresse (1:285 scale)

[Fitz]

Here's my 3d-printed Burford-Kegresse armoured MG carrier/APC from about 1930, in 1:285 scale.

It's alongside a GHQ A9 Cruiser, for comparison. The A9 is a few years later than the Burford-Kegresse.

I'm really pretty happy with the amount of detail I can get into a FUD 3d print. There are some issues with striping on vertical and flat sloped surfaces, but nothing I can't live with; it's not apparent at tabletop distances, or even quite close up.

Very cool. I could even say cute!

Very nice Fitz. Do you know where I can get reasonable scale plans for a Burford-Kegresse, as I want to scratch build one for my 28mm VBCW forces?

These are the drawings I made for my 1:100 model — you'll have to translate the mm dimensions to 1:56 or 1:48 or whatever the scale is that you want to build.

Do you have any plans to release the Burford-Kegresse in 1/144 or similar? (He asks hopefully.)

I do, and I have.
It's available in 1/144 at http://shpws.me/Ot6k and in 1/200 at http://shpws.me/Nfw4.

They're only available in FUD or FED resin at the moment; they'd need a fair bit of redesigning to get them to print reliably in cheaper WSF nylon.

Fantastic. You must have just added the 1/144 - I visited your shop a few days ago and you had it in every scale except the one I needed.

Now... how about a 1/144 Lanchester MkII?
