I wanted to expand my small collection of armour and so decided to take a punt on an eBay seller who is producing not-quite-historical resin tanks at ridiculously cheap prices, and here are the results…
First up is a medium tank for my BUF and Blackshorts, christened ‘Unity’, after one of the infamous Mitford sisters.
She being a BUF beast, I was content to spray her with black undercoat, drybrush on some mud and add a couple of transfers I had knocking around. The BUF symbol was printed out, stuck on with PVA and then painted over.

I had to add the MG barrels on the sponsons but that was it. Both models came undercoated in grey and being a lazy so-and-so I decided to simply apply a wash and then do a little drybrushed highlighting and weathering.
Eagle eyed readers may spot a few small transfers – enough to make it interesting but nothing faction-specific so I can use her for any force.
Here are a couple of comparison shots…
They look great. Love the names.
ReplyDeleteVery nice. I do like the look of the Grey Lady.
ReplyDeleteThese look great JP! I second the comment regards the names.
ReplyDeleteThey do look great! The mailed fist emblem is so appropriate to the BUF.
ReplyDeleteAre they the PMC tanks? I've a few of those. Good value.
ReplyDeleteNot entirely sure - the seller was 'Aylafred', but from what I've read, they are certainly very similar so it could be the same guy.
