Great finish, David. :)
Confused as always, and somewhere in hiding on the Scandinavian peninsula...

Thanks Sissel, it nearly got kicked into the bin at one point.

A great finish and well done for persevering with this David. Not the most ideal of blitz kits by the sound of it!
Doing - Tamiya 1/35th Universal Carrier.

shaun, it most certainly wasn't and I wish now that I had fished an Airfix Bren Gun Carrier kit out of the stash instead.
Jaime, not by be, though- little scenes take up lots of space and I don't have the room.

I was looking through my last years holiday snaps and found this image, it looks like the Spanish used the same tank but with a gun.

It looks like it is based on a T-26 that was based on an export version of the Vickers Tank.
