Hello Alex,

Thank you for pointing out the error of my ways. I simply thought that if photos of other than purely Canadian vehicles were posted here, photos of models of same would also be acceptable.
Your point however, is well taken and in future will restrict my participation to research and dialog on this Forum.

Cheers,

Neil

Thanks You Neil..
With your attitude ,you are a welcome addition to the forum and I'm sure you will find much useful info here to assist you in your model builds..especially your CMP vehicles.Some of our common wealth member models are also discussed and are interesting to certain of our MLU long standing members.

From the other point of veiw:
Large amounts of the MLU Forum are neither Canadian Vehicle based, nor Canada based.
Forums, like clubs and associations, change focus as time goes on.
Modelers ask for and receive specific details on a large range of vehicles, if they wish to show their gratitude by showing the end result, thats fine by me.
Richard.

The softskin forum intro does say that there is space for all softskins that served with the British and Commonwealth armies and I certainly found it interesting to see a recreation of a period photograph from the forum.

To my mind, the attention that it has drawn to the unit involved and the markings that they carried make it a worthwhile part of the discussion. There is a difference between a whole thread dedicated to modelling technicalities and a single image of the finished product - which might just inspire someone to source and restore an example of the real thing.

...but I don't own a Candian built vehicle, so I'm an outsider too...
