Title: New Copplestone armoured car model
Post by: Gluteus Maximus on 04 March 2010, 05:53:07 PM
Garford-Putilov Heavy Armoured Car

Would be perfect for VSF, what with the lovely solid wheels and the overall design. Just needs a smokestack  :D

It looks good, but I prefer the one Tobi is making in this thread: http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=16309.15 (http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=16309.15)

I think I will get one of those when it is available and then convert it to VSF.

Yes, Tobi's a modelling genius! I'd be happy to own both models, though  :D

Are you a friend of Tobi's?  ;)

The Copplestone one looks pretty darn good to me.

Hard to really compare without seeing both finished products side-by-side I guess...  ::)

I cant agree more to this, my question is where do we put the smoke stack? Front or on top?

Hahaha, well I painted some stuff in the shop, but that is all  :D and it is not because I don't like the Copplestone one, I just prefer the other in this case...

But I have lot of copplestone stuff myself, he has always been a great sculptor.
