This follows in line ( sort of ) with CSMs range of WWI armoured cars!

Interesting Dave - in 35th scale that will be a reasonable size!!

Which I reckon is the rear wheel for this:

I had the same thought as soon as I saw the render.

Methinks that's gonna be seriously expensive!

Reminds me of the 'cotton-reel tanks' that we made as kids, with a matchstick, cotton reel and elastic band :thinking:

Been a LONG, LONG time since I've heard of them Gerry. I suspect modern kids won't be as impressed with them as we were 'cos there's nowhere to put the batteries!

They’ll find it pretty difficult to find a cotton reel as well Dave.....

Oh yes! - my father used to make us a supertank! Panel pins hammered in around the rims, and a candle to lubricate the driving arms - when did wooden cotton reels vanish?

Does that have a particular era it’s supposed to represent?

What's that? I don't recognise that uniform - is it some foreign army - certainly nothing UK based that's for sure! (An attempt at irony!)

[Tim Marlow]

Oh, I don’t know Steve...

left hand one looks quite similar....

[GerryW]

But even the Met don't have 'ER' on the badge - plus missing a button

Ah, but that's a daguerreotype from some long-forgotten era!

[Tim Marlow]

Apparently the guy on the left is wearing the “new” 1980 uniform....hardly Daguerreotype, perhaps Ambrotype? I wonder what idiot thought ties were a good idea for front line officers though.....

Don’t know about that either Gerry....

They’ve taken a right Liberty missing off a whole button though.....
