I will amend accordingly. Just have it pulled over by the local Police Vehicle Examiner! Ian_B 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium acg5324 Posted July 16, 2021 RMweb Premium Share Posted July 16, 2021 My Granada and Mk2 Cortina have arrived from Redandy767. The Cortina and Granada are almost the same size when the Granada should be bigger. The Cortina is a bit on the dumpy side. The Granada’s shape looks much better. I’ve ordered an unpainted one for Jack (Regan) and George (Carter)….I’ll need to add some spot lights to it. 3 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trewisin Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 Hi guys I must get my spell checker working It seems to be missing out a few letters every now and then. Andy those new Grenada and Cortina look very good , As you say the colours need changing if you are thinking of the TV series The Professionals. ( Bodie & Doyle would get lost looking for Cowley's Grenada.) Does Redandy have a web site or is he just on Ebay? Regards Ray. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And are the dimensions mentioned correct as the 1/148 Granada is smaller than the 1/148 Wolsey and Marina? Is it quoting the size for the 1/160 scale one? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only had this 5 mins mind, version6 in background with version 7 in grey. 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

grahame Posted July 22, 2021 Author Share Posted July 22, 2021 I like the lwb/hr trannie and think it looks better that the swb/lr version - possibly because the swb/lr seems rather too angular. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you I have just sent version 2 back as my adviser and I are not happy with the LWB version. The SWB is very hard I think it is what it is now, the curves are very hard to get on a small model and are ending up on the renders looking angular. Hopefully over he weekend I'll get a the pair printed and have a better idea of the shape.#, no point printing the current version of lwb. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trewisin Posted July 24, 2021 Share Posted July 24, 2021 Hi all just a quickie if those of you are into N/2mm modelling and are into military movements ie transporting them on rails. I suggest you have a look at butlerprintedmodels.co.uk. look at the section 10-12 mm /1/144 scale. There is quite va good choice for WW2 vehicles or post war.
