I recently acquired two Shapeways Burford Kegresse MG Carriers by Fitz to replace my earlier dogy scratchbuilds.

These are lovely models and a great improvement on my earlier efforts. My thanks to Fitz for producing a model of a vehicle I never expected to be available (along with the Russian MS-1 and T-27s he has done).

Fitz's Shapeways shop, which has all sorts of goodies for 28mm, 20mm and 15mm, can be found at this link:

Fitz's efforts and responsiveness to requests mean i have also finalised my 1931 Soviet Armoured Brigade, Brigade Kalinovsky, Some pictures to follow.

It's great to see it in the flesh. I'm waiting on my own 15mm example, but it probably won't be here for another couple of weeks at least.

Did you have any problems at all with the assembly and fit of the Scarff mount and guns?

No problems at all (assuming I did it right)

On request, I've re-scaled this model up to 1/56 for the 28mm crowd. It gets a bit pricey at the larger scale ($47.50), but there it is. You can get hold of it at http://shpws.me/Mukj (http://shpws.me/Mukj)
