Our Soviets will be airbourne and we have BMD's so you could do that.

Sov airborne (& BMDs) are definitely on my todo list...just thinking about vehicles for a group of naval infantry to link up with them  :)

Okay, this may sound like a stupid question, but looking at the Land Rover, which side of the chassis are the differentials? Are they on the same side fore and aft?

Evidently my Google Fu is weak.

Thanks in advance.

No idea, but if you’ve got a mate that peers underneath your vehicles and points out that sort of thing, then I’d seriously consider who I class as a mate  ;) :D

I dread the day when someone points out the missing drive shaft on my CT15A.

Painted up the first of the land rovers I ordered - went together very easily, a lovely kit.




I fear that I may have got carried away with the camouflage though



The only modification (apart from the camo netting is a head swop of the guy sat at the back (gave him a Crooked Dice head).

Q: What do you call a Wombat gunner in a big pile of dead leaves?
A: Russell.

I think it looks pretty good and a fair approximation of the original. Nicely done!

As I mentioned on your thread nice.

The top shot is going to be very useful.

How does the muzzle blast and the cammo net interact?
