My Landship: Review and Naming Contest

[Plynkes]

Thanks, Chris.

As far as the rust streaks go, that is exactly what I intend to do. I was orginally planning to wipe them with a piece of cloth while the ink was still wet to just leave stains, but with them being under the tank where you don't normally notice them, I totally forgot they were there until I came to take that photo. Idiot.

that beast looks very very nice!

The tank colour scheme works. Rust streaks not really  

I see, i need some tanks. Pardulon one. That one. Other ones, too.  :roll:

one question .
Is the Model made from the old mould fron Honourable Lead Boiler Suit Company ?
It looks like they sold the mould´s to brigade games ?

[Plynkes]

No, I believe it is totally new and original. It was announced on TMP a few weeks ago. Great War Miniatures are quite a new company. I might be wrong about this, but I don't think so.

Brigade sell Mark IVs, but they are not the same castings.

But as a name, Spotted Dick is still very much in  the running, along with Fray Bentos and the original Plum Duff.

If you don't take Fray Bentos, I'll claim it as my own and tell everyone how clever and witty I am for coming up with it.  

[Plynkes]

Well I didn't think it up, it's a real one. I found it on that website that the other fellow (was it Tadportly?) linked to.

For that reason I probably won't use it, as I want mine to be fictional rather than named after real tanks. I'm now thinking Bully Beef for the main course (male tank) and Plum Duff for pudding (the female tank, when I get one).


Bully Beef sounds so typically English, that's why I like it, and it keeps to the food theme that seems to have developed.
