Hello

posted some Scammell Commander Tanktransporter pictures at; http://community.webshots.com/user/keesf100
this is the Accurate Armour 1/35 kit painted but still without weathering,
the Chieftain hull on the back is just for adjusting the tie down chains.




I hope you enjoy the pictures
cheers case

Damn, I haven't seen one of those in a long time. I was the project offier when we shipped our battalion to Wildflecken from Baumholder (PCS) back in '79. This is what we used. You could display it next to your Dragon wagon. Oh, just out of curiousity what does this puppy cost? The kit not the eal one.

This beast looks great :-) How much time did you need to build it? What are your comments about quality and accuracy of this kit? BTW: do British troops use Scammell in the Gulf?

hello guys

Blaster76, I don't exactly remember the price ,it was about 350 euro's thats about the same in dollars,
To Michal ,the kit was very nice to build, really accurate and without many air holes and such,the only minor point was the back deck of the trailer with some problems with the master .
I don't know of any use in this gulf war .

cheers case
