Lancia IZM

Something more unusual, the Lancia IZM is a WW1 Italian armoured car that saw service through into WW2 (a bit like the Britis Rolls-Royce Armoured cars) I've painted it up for use with my Italian forces to fight in Ethiopia.

The model is from Ready to Roll, and includes a moulded on base, not what I would have liked but I couldn't face the task of sanding it off and since macadamed roads are rare it shouldn't look to out of place.

Only just noticed this, it looks a nice little model. I did 2 of the Ravenscroft version for the SCW and it was quite a bit of work sticking it all together.

Very nice.
