Very much an impulse buy when I saw it in the Early War Miniatures damaged remnants bin at York. I've patched up the four wheels and scratch built a turret.
I've given it markings for the 43rd Wessex Division to fit with the rest of my forces, but I don't know if they actually used any.
For those interested the turret was created with a cone of thin plasticard fitted and cut to shape. Then reinforced by a second layer and then the MG aperture cut out. The MG support was part of an old aircraft undercarriage.

Great salvage rebuild. The turret looks to have been the trickiest bit - is that some sort of plastic cone shape cut to size?
Good work. Sadly, I didn't see another in the seconds bin.
Cheers, Andy
Otter's were mainly used by the Canadians in Italy or NE Europe Will. Some were also issued to the RAF apparently
Really nice salvage job.
