discussion AFV Club Valentine Mk1.

[Guest]

WIP so far.

Bought this for a good price at the Southwell Show and have to say that it is a cracking kit with lots of small parts and some good PE parts, you really don`t need any aftermarket stuff to get a good model.

I couldn`t help myself though and added a scratch drivers compartment and some extra bits in the turret to `busy` it up a bit.

Please excuse crap photos, as they were taken at night in the model room with my phone camera and under a normal bulb.

Thanks, fellas, it is a good kit but very fiddly in places due to very small parts, the turret N0 11 antenna base is all PE and I think it would have been much better if AFV Club had done it in plastic, that said they are really good kits.

Nice start, looking forward to seeing more of this build.

Valentine finished and ready to join the Armoured Car on it`s base, still got to decide what figures will best suit the scene. Stay tuned.

Just 3 pics as my computer has decided to do a good imitation of a glacier, so more later.

Thanks for looking.
