Shapeways designer PeterFitz now offers five models of British AFVs from the '20s and '30s. They include the Vickers Medium Marks 2, 3, and C, the Birch gun, and the Carden-Loyd Mark 8 light tank. They're in various scales brom 28 mm to 1/285. You'll find pictures at link |

The only scale I'd use would be 1/72 and I doubt I'd want to pay that much. 3D printed stuff is definitely getting better but still outside the cost bracket my wargaming is in. |

if the finnish is that grainy rough finish it would look awful in 28mm, might be ok in micro though.
one reason I stopped using 3d prints,
nice modelling though. |

£8.00 GBPish for a single 1:285 vehicle is a killer. in 1/76 Frontline do a Vickers Medium, whist Giesbers Models make some very nice resin models including the Independent, Vickers Medium Mk III and an assortment of tankettes (not cheap but worth it). |

Interesting idea, but why no 1/144? |
