You are not wasting any time in getting this finished.  Interesting choice on paint colour.  Have you established the back story or is that yet to come? 

Regardless, it is looking good!

Land / Fire Brigades/Departments - Fire-Fighting Equipment

« Last post by Jeffry Fontaine on April 29, 2024, 05:32:45 AM »

While there are models of firetrucks and other fire-fighting equipment in a variety of scales it is only very recently that some attention has been given to 1/35th scale fire fighting vehicles and equipment. 

A topic devoted to this seems like a good idea at this point. 

To start it off, this video from "Battle Order" YouTube Channel is a good start on the subject: YouTube > Battle Order > Who Fights Military Grade Fires?

While I personally detest the term "Military Grade" as a click-bait catch phrase the video is educational as far as the content is concerned.

Hmmm.... has the URL on it existed at some point, or did you make it up?

That came out very nicely. Always thought the Mk I was an excellent candidate for a scale-o-rama, but not quite like this (I think the design would make a splendid 'landship' with a five of six inch gun in the turret.)

Indeed, or even the turret from a dreadnought . . .
