Another folly: Valentine bridge layer
« on: July 27, 2021, 07:29:26 PM »
I think Carlos predicted this one some time ago (ok it was a Covenantor) but here is my Valentine bridge layer.  It will be marked up as 'Tay' from the 5th Canadian Armoured Division HQ once I find some decals

Based on a Rubicon Valentine and the drawn/printed by me

Excellent!  What scale is that?  A very kind mate converted one for me in 15mm (it was an essential piece of kit for some of our Burma scenarios).

Thanks all it's been an interesting side project. 
Drawings were 'basic' to say the least.

Sadly its too fragile to actually articulate the linkage.

Now that’s a truly magnificent bit of kit! Time to get cracking on the Chieftain version?
Em dezembro de '81
Botou os ingleses na roda
3 a 0 no Liverpool
Ficou marcado na história
E no Rio não tem outro igual
Só o Flamengo é campeão mundial
E agora seu povo
Pede o mundo de novo

Wonderful piece of work, though I was surprised that it does not actually deploy the bridge ^__^.

Yes, but we want one just a bit bigger to go with the rest of our toys.
