D-Day LCVP.

[Guest]

a real LCVP in my back yard sound like a dream to me

It's not an LCVP, but a close modern(ish) equivalent:

I’ve never been on one of those, but from what I’ve seen of them on TV, this one is a little bit wider Though once you get into the crew compartment, probably not much bigger.

Very, very nice work Guy.
I've a couple of LCAs in the stash and I'm hoping to give those the same kind of attention to detail.
Your metal finish is truly impressive. This will look great when the paint goes on!

Cheers

Jakko, thanks for the oddball LCVP photo. Is that a WWII era LCVP ?

Thank you friends.

Guyke, I won't say much because words probably won't tell my emotions when looking at this. The only thing I will say is YUMMIE

Keep it up, now the real fun will almost commence!

(Sorry for the late reply, I only just noticed it.) No, it’s a post-war LCVP, if I’m not mistaken an (NL)LCVP Mk. II. The marking on the bow is spurious, and only there because of photos taken perhaps a hundred metres behind where the photographer was when taking the picture I posted earlier:
