WW2 Masters pics!

As our 'merkin cousins say, 'gosh darn that's purdy'...

No, i must get these other two projects kicked out of the way before i launch into either then WWWII or AVBCW work.  Models as good as this make me far too impatient though...

Lovely work guys.

Forum member 'Squirrel' has also been doing some modelling work for us, working on some handy models for all you Early War gamers, the Cruiser Mk I and II, also known as the A9 and A10!  These will be heading to Pendraken HQ shortly, and then we'll pop them in the moulding queue!

Mk I, A9:






Mk II, A10:

for June release?

for June release?

They're en route to us, but they won't be ready for June.  Maybe July, but we over extended ourselves slightly getting both the LoA and Sch-Holstein ranges out in May, so June's probably going to be a bit quieter on the releases front.  I've edited the initial post.

Brilliant. They look great. And fills a major hole for the early war.

Thoght the A9 had two sub turrets, that one seems to only have 1 ?

Yes two mini turrets on the A9. Is only 1 on the master as you are going to cast the turret separately then attach it to the final production master?

This ^^^.  I should probably have put that in the initial post as well.  It's pretty tricky to sculpt two turrets exactly the same, so just one is done to save time.

I had better start saving for July then as Squirrel has done a great job on those two
I do hope he will continue his fine work

That's a relief as I'm was trying to catch up on the painting mountain in June and not buy anything new until July.

I'll only need a couple of models won't I.  There's A9s for my BEF and A10s for my early Western Desert. But then I'll need A10s for France as well....and they still used A9s in the desert.......and I'll need CS versions as well..................

Looking good.  By July I might actually have time to paint some for my 1940 desert operations ...

I'll need 4-5 A9s and 2-3 A10s in due course and I imagine I'll be able to scratchbuild the 3.7in CS for the A10 CS.

Shouldn't need to do that, just add a sleve to the Barrel. An old trick with the Airfix Crusader was to fit 6pdr gun to the 2pdr turret.

Very nicely done Squirrel

Just to update, these have arrived at Pendraken HQ, and we're hoping to get them into a mould tomorrow.  There may even be a small number available for anyone lucky enough to be at Triples this weekend!

Nice painted model.
