Constructora Field Car #3 Spanish Civil War 28mm

Description

This Is A 28Mm Model Of The Spanish Civil War Constructora Field Car #3. The Background Of The Vehicle Is Covered In This Link: Http://Www.Tanks-Encyclopedia.Com/Ww2/Spain/Constructora-Field/ I Started With Jarlang'S Excellent Model Of The Constructora #2, And Upscaled It To 28Mm. I Created The New Front End To Represent The Different Design On Car #3, As Well As Making The Wheels Separate (They Fit Into Recesses Under The Hull) And Adding Details- Pistol Ports, Engine Access Panels, Vision Slits And A Back Door. This Vehicle Was Used As An Apc, And Carries 9 Men, So Its Value In A Bolt Action Game Is Considerable; With A 7+ Armour Rating, In A Properly Historical Force Mix, It Provides Some Good Opportunities. As Noted In The Link, There Were At Least Nine Of These Cars Crafted By The Loyalists In Barcelona; Note The Ventilation Tubes On This Model Are Set Into The Top Of The Hull; And Don'T Protrude As Much As The Earlier Models - Each Car Has Differences, And I Did This One Up As Best I Could From Both English And Spanish Language Sources. As They Were Built On The Fly, There Are Few Records Post-Scw Recounting Their Manufacture. If Using Them When Gaming The Spanish Civil War, Please Don'T Be Limited To Using It As A Loyalist Afv; Both Sides In The Conflict Captured Their Opponent'S Afvs And Used Them Against Their Former Owner. If Trying To Score The Vehicle For A Point Value, Please Use Richard Humble'S Excellent "Bolt Action Vehicle Design System".
