Hi there Rustygun , Some really cool photos there. I really liked the last two , As there was a lot to take in. The 9th photo as well, with the tank and commander silloet on the diorama wall behind. I as enjoy getting a Waaaw from seeing good action figure diorama photos and there was a few whilst viewing these photos. Excellent shots Very kind regards , Allan

I like the tank, and the diorama. Is the floor foamboard with the detail cut in?
Thank you … The floor is a piece of wood with the pavement gut into it with an Elric cutting tool I have .

It looks that the CRVT has had a rather large gun added to it. I hope the turret isn't too cramped as a result.

Great looking setup! Looks like they’ve swapped out the original 76mm for something larger. There actually was a later version armed with a 90mm for the export market. I think they are/were used by Indonesia, Nigeria and Venezuela.

The gun is a Cockerill 90mm, developed in Belgium. The Brits never used it that I'm aware of, but some other countries did.
