    Airfix 1:72 Bedford MW Conversion (A03311)

    Converted into the RAF MWR. The RAF MWR's had an extended chassis to support house bodies.

    This particular vehicle is a RVT 115, using a Type E Mk1 body. These were fitted out as Low-Power, Medium-Frequency, Receiver/ Transmitter vehicles.

    Finished in the mid-1943 SCC2 and SCC1a colour scheme, although it could be seen on vehicles until the end of the war.

    After glosscoting, the decals and a pinwash were added, then mattcoted. The weathering was my usual artists pastels, laid on with a stiff brush. Then a soft brush to remove the excess.

    Marked as a vehicle from 2782Y Mobile Signals Unit, 21 Base Defence Sector, 84 Group, 2 Tactical Air Force. Normandy, Mid-44.
