Brilliant idea - those pigeons were really unsung heroes! Several tales of them on the internet.

That is a very nice kit, though beware that the tracks are very tight around the wheels.

No, there is a box out there - think that John had them in stock a while ago.
Edit Miniart - £10.95 (less discount)

Scorpion Miniature Models do a great range of mods for Scorpion and Scimitar,as well as FV432 etc.

Hi Steve hope your good ,interesting I've got the Roden 1 /72 pidgeon version in the stash perhaps if I follow your build it might just push the button , great subject and it looks a really nice little kit but for some reason its taken up permanent residence in the stash. Dave
