    This is a website that is well worth a visit. Lots and lots of photos, tanks, A/C's, range wrecks, ammo effects etc etc. http://www.users.zetnet.co.uk/lsm/dhmg/ (Mark, its where the photo of the scrappy ferrets came from)

    The first tub of paint I got for the C8, I bought from Warpaint aka RR Motor Services. Eggshell Olive Drab. The second tub of paint I acquired off them is NATO olive green. On ringing them up to ask about this and ask if they could swap the tins over they told me that NATO olive green and the Olive Drab are the same paint. Can someone clarify?

    Dont ask me where these gems come from, comes from wasted hours trawling the interweb! Ive been looking for a photo but cant find one as yet. There were 2 made in St Petersburg, this one is called Bychok. A very crude early MTB. 16Tons 220BHP 11.5 knots top speed, crewed by 9 men. Armed with 2 basic torpedoes and a 37mm Hotchkiss gun. They were sold by Russia to Belgium (I think) and were scrapped in 1936. Belgium did rename both boats. Hopelessly outdated by the turn of the century.

    Does have a very submarine shape Mike, I suppose a sub classes as a torpedo boat as well...interesting....:coffee:
  24. Rick W
    Im very impressed! It is a torpedo boat although not the TURBINIA. The ship above predates TURBINIA by some 17 years. Although they do look similar I will grant you. TURBINIA
