Chris Insidethearmour Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 Hi Guys I must admit, I'm a modeller rather than an MV collector, but my business of making resin kits has brought me firmly into the MV world working with collectors to produce my kits of (primarily) british vehicles and interiors As well as producing kits I like to model other companies' too. Here are som models I've completed in the last year or so: COMPANY - a Dieppe MkI Churchill (AFV Club tank, Cromwell models conversion, scratchbuilt interior and deep wading) FCM 36 (Azimut with Scratchbuilt interior, figure by Hornet and base by Celticwerks) Sherman III Mid Production (Dragon kit with TMD wading stacks and various scratchbuilt bits) Tasca Sherman III DV with scratchbuilt stowage and deep wading, crew is miniart with some replacement heads Des Kit P16 Kegresse, out of the box Resicast Mortar Carrier (on Tamiya Bren Carrier base kit), this is still very much a work in progress) Finally, this one, a commission build (still in progress) of the KFS 1/24 Saladin (open to more commissions if anyone wants a scale model of their pride and joy by the way :-D ) Tahnks for looking Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Show em what you do inside your 1/35th Churchills though H Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Insidethearmour Posted August 1, 2011 Author Share Posted August 1, 2011 Thanks guys I'm afraid I can't post too many pictures of the Saladin as the build has been picked up as an article for a modelling mag; but seeing as Howard has mentioned the interior.... As you asked Howard, here are some shots of some of the kits I produce: Churchill MkIV Interior (1:35) And Matilda Interior (also 1:35) Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robin craig Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Chris, as a model maker (on hiatus) I truly appreciate the level of detail and work, wonderful and thanks for sharing. It makes you nt want to close the vehicle up because of all the work involved. Some how a vignette of of a workshops scene seems to be the only way to sensibly show of the interior when a vehicle in is in for base overhaul. Once again thanks for sharing R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Insidethearmour Posted August 5, 2011 Author Share Posted August 5, 2011 Thanks Robin I tend to pick subjects for my kits with big hatches so you can see the interiors when they are built. Not all tanks are suitable for this in 1/35 That being said, there is a gentleman building on of my churchill interiors on a production line setting which should show it off that little bit better Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
