This is the Guy Lizard ACV, a British armoured command vehicle of WWII. It preceded the more famous AEC Dorchester, and was neither as spacious nor as comfortable. Most of them were lost in the retreat from Dunkirk, but a few made it out to the desert. I've painted it in the early-war Caunter scheme.

This is a 1:100 scale (15mm) design of my own, printed on my Mars Pro.

I've printed this before in FDM (http://mojobob.blogspot.com/2018/11/lizard-finished.html) on my Ender 3, and painted that one as it would have appeared in France in 1940.

Nice work, both the design and the painting
