PK.
Not a clue if 1st corps are at the show. You'd have to check their site.

Although I do a fair bit of work(in multiple styles!) for 1st Corps miniatures. I don't work exclusively for them, I'm free lance. most of the company's I do work for don't credit work to me(which is fine because I get paid more).But I like working for Simon and Mick. As they're decent chaps ,and they're happy to go with my cunning plans (even when the odd ones a dead end.)
Plus I do private commissions as well. In fact I've another one to send off to 'Helen' on the forum.
As for me? My next show will be Partizan II. As I'll more than likely have some more sculpts for Sally 4th plus a few others,and they're all attending that show.

Mark.

 still needs a little tweaking before I'm happy.
But here you go The 'Twins ' wheels.
Originally it was an Austin 7 but that's gone off to a new home.As it simply didn't sit well with the other cars for the range.
So I've opted for a halfway house between a 7 and another roadster.

 Doh! I will probably end up having to buy one of these now!
I am going to build a wargames army, a big beautiful wargames army, and Mexico is going to pay for it.

 Absolutely adore the vehicles!  Between this and the Pulp "Mad Max" cars  floating around, I am turning into an early 20th century vintage race car junkie  :)

Just got one of the 3 wheelers in the post this morning.

Very impressed - casting, both metal & resin is very good and needed little clean up - one teeny tiny air bubble to fill.

Definitely be getting the others 8)

Great line you've produced here TSG!  :)

While it might not fit in with the rest, a military Austin 7 tourer might look a bit more rugged than its civilian counterpart and of course could crossover for WWII (BEF and Home Guard) and VBCW. The wireless carrier version served a number of police forces too.

It was claimed in ads that the '7' could reach any corner of the Empire, hurrah!  :D

These are great. Any chance of a small family car like an Austin 7 or Morris 8? The absence of such cars is a big hole in what is available for British pulp, VBCW or WW2/Operation Sealion scenarios.

Dags,

I'm glad you did racing green.Unfortunately it was too much of a risk for the adverts. When I get the red one back it will be get finished as its meant to be flying circus inspired.(not able to put the cross on the door panel for adverts).
Plus it will have twin Vickers K's in the mount.
At the moment you've got to request guns (simply not added to the lists yet.)

For the three wheeler,and the roadster ,you can fit, Browning .50 cal, Browning water cooled .303 cal, single Vickers K, twin K's, and a Vickers .303 cal machine gun.

For the saloon you need a dogleg mount which fits in the recess in the rear of the front seats. This will hold everything but the K's.
Plus if ask for the guns from the French and Belgium open topped armoured cars(ww1)
You can get even more variation.

As a few people have pm'd and suggested a few things , I give a blanket answer again. Thank you for asking but I'm not going to hand out lists of figures and vehicles that are waiting release or pending. It's commercial suicide.
I'm. Glad you like the way this project is progressing  ,However it is a wait and see period.

As for vehicles and suggestions,love to hear /see them. But please don't expect a yes or no answer.
However here's a picture of one that didn't make the grade. As always I've more made than get released.

Mark.

I'm good with no feedback on suggestions and I'm enjoying watching the project come to life regardless. Still there's the old adage that "if you don't ask, you don't get"; granted that you might not actually get anyway.

Rather spiffy, those!  :-*
