Beautiful painting Ryan. Just as a note of interest, the machine gun turret had traverse obstruction with the drivers compartment and so the TAC and TAY were supposed to work in pairs defending each other by covering each others obstructed arcs of fire. Thats why the Dutch had both :)
@@daviessuperchannel Its the beauty of the early war arms race mate. Very little was properly tested under stress conditions and gave rise to some incredibly challenging and interesting scenarios I think. :) 🤣🤣🤣
Beautiful! I haven’t seen the Mig wash used with flow improver, might give that a try. I imagine it doesn’t stink like oil with white spirit. As usual, the commentary keeps me entertained.
Nice to see more KNIL. Edit: they look great, nice color choices, the Marmon turret reminds me of a Stuart. The fumes are not fun in a closed environment, served in a tank as a gunner for six years and my second loader had the habit to forget to turn on the ventilation for the coax machinegun I operated, burning throat, runny eyes, he was the one with most of it on his side of the tank and still forgot to turn it on, he was "spesial".
The reason for the 2 variants is because the turret couldn't traverse a full 360 which both the Dutch and marmon Herrington recognized was a problem so the solution was to build the 2 variants and have them work in pairs to give a full 360 of coverage from the turrets.
Hilarious! Thanks for that. No 360º traverse, no problem we'll just use two tanks get a full 360º of awesome .30 cal MG fire. That's why I love these crazy tanks.
@daviessuperchannel they're hilariously bad but by the time the KNIL got serious about acquiring tanks the war had kicked off and the pickings were slim...

Excellent work as ever. Great little vehicles; the KNIL is weirder than some Weird War stuff!
Very nicely done, great looking tanks!

Thanks! Yes, someone else pointed that out to me. Could those things be any more impractical?

Nicely done man!👍🍻
Great again but would also like to see your sets and your ideas on developing jungle terrain. All the best old sport
Oh yeah, that's coming up!
