OK, I'm a bit slow on the workbench. A few months back I purchased three 1/56th scale LCVP kits from Coresec Engineering for a D-Day scenario. The kits are in laser cut MDF and plasticard. The laser cuts are nice and clean, and all the pieces separate easily for assembly. link I used LVT crew figures from Company B: Gun tub MG crew: link General LVT crew: link I used magnets to hold the assault ramps in place, so they can be opened and closed. Added some ship fittings in 1/48 and O-scale from ebay, and used Woodland Scenics transfers for the ship ID numbers. Too bad I can't find the proper scale-sized rope fenders at a decent price as well, but I'm happy with how it turned out!

Hi jdpintex, I put this project off too until I found the Company B figures. |
