Title: 1st Corps Vehicles for VBCW - review
Post by: jp1885 on April 30, 2014, 08:43:26 AM

Hi Chums.

The chaps at 1st Corps have asked me to post up a review of the vehicles that I am currently working on (as part the Very British Civil Forum's 'Paint For Victory' scheme) on my blog.

Interested parties are directed to part 1, which can be found at:- http://hereford1938.blogspot.co.uk/2014/04/thanks-1st-corps.html

The bottom one looks suspiciously like a Pre-Heresy Mark 1 Rhino TM.  :D

I like those. I think the armoured car is very Picasso and may steal that design for one of my own.

I'll get onto Simon.The Yeomanry Armoured car is still for sale.It appears to have been knocked out of the listings when the Daimler lorry was added.
Just drop him an email.If you still have problems let me know,and I'll find one.
Mark.
