looking for landsverk l60 in 28
« on: 22 October 2013, 11:48:03 PM »
As the title says, I am looking for a landsverk l60 in 28mm for some 1930s Irish armor.
"Peace" is that brief, glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading.

Darn, how much bigger was the Stridsvagn compared to the landsverk? Do you think it would make a decent proxy? Also who makes  the Stridsvagn?

It's a Stridsvagn M/41 (licensbuilt t(38) made by Scania) based on a Chieftain t(38) whot I converted slightly.

Nice, I like it. I guess a pz 35 will make a decent  landsverk with some modification.

Oh I see. I didn't understand. Cheiftain being the manufacturer and not the tank! (I thought it was a bit weird)

A Chieftain t(38) would be a interesting kitbash indeed.

Leaving aside that none of them have the right running gear and that's the hardest thing to make yourself the Pz 35t's turret looks marginally closer to shape, sans gun. Neither of them really looks like the real article, alas.

If you wanted a proxy I'd still opt for the Pz35t because it's more exotic looking and the Pz38 is better recognised by the average gamer so with a new barrel and a coat of green paint it will suspend disbelief better.

Actually if you want a good proxy for an Irish tank I'd look at Copplestone's 1/55 Vickers Medium C. The Irish fielded a solitary Vickers D but whats a single letter between friends?

I think I might actually have a Vickers Medium buried in my shed of unfished projects.
And I was thinking the Pz 35t myself. Even with the treads being off, they are the closest thing out there that I could find.
