Sometimes Size\Scale Doesn't Matter.

[Prof. Dinglebat. Phd.]

It's 1/35th scale (Bigger then 1/48th = 28mm) but because it's a tent the scale doesn't effect the look. The radio still gets in with a pinch (Remember the size of the first mobile phones?) and it's an authentic looking one for the period for those whom like authenticity, and the crate, like the tent looks ok too. The tent can be closed or with a swift surgeon's knife flick can be made to be opened with the replacement part option.

Wonder what Lara would think?

Great Idea!!

I have several of those left over from a previous delayed deferred dormant moribund older hobby!!

I do think though the radio would look better in a lab/radio hut setting, rather than passing for portable.

One of my pet niggles is HOW things get stacked or transported. 
In a age of muscle power and man handling I think it is important to think of goods in believable, useful sizes.
The great heroic piles forklifts move today look out of place in an age of hand trucks & hoists, carts & cranes, dollies & derricks.
 
The 20l/5gal jerrican is a classic example: much bigger & a man can't handle it easily, any smaller the useful content quantity diminishes rapidly.  In short, the jerrican, like an egg, is the perfectly sized vessel!

Remembering that a man must move it goes a long way to determining scale size.
A man couldn't carry your tent himself.  Several would need to move it to & from its conveyance.
No porter or bearer could travel with it alone, but suspend the canvas from the ridgepole & several might.
Pack it aboard a mule, and be on your merry way to the next bivouac!!

Yes, very nice set!

I have one of those tents painted up and think it works great for 28mm minis.
Also, I agree the radio works for a tabletop one. Nice find.
