Armortek

And maybe you might think I'm being a bit fussy, especially for a piece that won't be seen too often, but the bell cranks (axle arms) seem wrong to me. AFAIK those on the Comet are essentially the same as those on the Cromwell Mk IV. Have a look at the attached. Rgds Pete http://www.btinternet.com/~...

The comet service manuals can be had as reprints from the MLRS, I find these invaluable, although it must be said that some of the pics in the reprints can be a bit hard to discern. The erprint costs are about the same as those for an original copy of the manuals on Evilbay but the pro's are that yo...

It isn't that complicated! it's mostly all right angles. even the barrel is mostly squared on the Mk II's and Mk III's. But Yes I agree armorpax is probably the best route for this, although I have been trying to talk him into it for a couple of years now... perhaps the Comet is all the incentive he...

Will Armortek be making a full BESA MG for the comet or just the barrel? A full Besa MG in this scale is sadly lacking so it might be a good idea to run up a few hundred for the tanks and for "extras"

Ah, the old HMCE... every now and again I get hit by that but not always. Not to encourage you to break the law or anything but I've know guys ask the shipper to mark it as a Gift, business sample or as a "Historical Collectible Item" which under HMCE guide lines makes it exempt from import duties! ...

The Douglas Kay figure comes with the Winter Pixie suit and whilst not perfect is the best we've got at present. It did not have a hood on the Pixie suit and so folks perfer to go with the Camo one and then repaint it. Alternatively, find some one handy with a sewing machine and use the camo one as ...

A Cracking picture of the suspension system!

WooHoo! Finally some British Armour... I'm in for one for sure. haven't bought an Armortek vehicle since the original Tiger I but I'm in for a Comet for sure, just show me where to sign up! As a side note is there any chance that you'll be selling the road wheels, idler, sprockets and track links se...

Haven't been here for a long time, sort of lost my access when they switched over to the new forum but Gill has kindly sorted me out...thanks Gill! Just to add to the calls for a Comet or Cromwell...although I'm half-way through buidling my own Cromwell out of sheet styrene at the moment. As always ...
