Hi Gentlemen,

Here I come with a little update :

Best regards,

Hey !

Here is my current project on the bench. It is a 1/35 Land Rover, but you'll see how uncommon my personnal approach of the Landy is...

I want to depict a (Kataeb Christian Phalanx) Lebanese Technical in the streets of Beirut in 1975. I only had the Tamiya Rover 7 Ambulance kit to start with :cool2:

Yes, this old one. Not suitable ? You sure ?

Nevermind ! Surgery on the way !!! White parts are homemade parts...

Here's where I am at the moment ! I'll keep you updated as the build progresses.

Comments welcome. :-)

Best regards,

Richard

Thank you !

Yep Andy ! I'm in the middle of a Land Rover conversion :-)

Can you point out or tell me which is the best subforum to post a progress of this conversion ? Where will the modeling topics suit better ? That's teasing !

TIA

Regards,

Richard

Hi,

I have seen so many beautiful pics in the Leyland Martian gallery section.

I especially feel impressed by the cargo / arty tractor version that sports a 'double sized' cabin.

It looks really agressive and powerful !

But the question is, I can find no information related to it, meaning, can you tell me :

When was it produced ?

How many were produced ?

When did it serve ? Where did it serve ?

Went to combat theaters ? if yes Where ?

Thank you in advance for all the info you may bring.

And being a newbie to the site, I am sorry if the answers I am looking for already exist here... but then, can you add a link to these ? :blush:

Best regards,

Richard

Hello gentlemen !

I am 37, I am french, living in France (35 miles south east Paris), and am especially interested in military stuff.

I have a long time passion : building model kits and have recently got attracted in modeling by trucks. So it's logical for me to get on board at HMVF.

Speak to you on the forum !

Best regards,

Richard
