The Universal Carrier or Bren Carrier was a Canadian produced tank during WW2. It was widely used by the British and Canadian Armed Forces. It’s was mainly used as a movable machine gun bunker. They were also used to move troops, supplies and artillery to the front line.

This has been a WIP of mine for the past two years, I finally just finished it. It’s a Mean Dog rear section cut to fit on a modified Wolverine chassis.
It features removable tools an opening hatch, rear storage and a front snow or debris plow. It’s towing an anti-aircraft missile defence system.

I love the front of it, really great lines. I also like it in the wip shot with all the front slots exposed. I understand that would be bad in a being shot at scenario I just like how it looks!

Thanks. I was going to leave the front open but I didn’t like how you could see the figure inside. This way it looks a lot tougher too.

Wow, beautiful work.
Great timing too, I've been reading a D-day book over the last couple of days and the Wombat is mentioned a couple of times.
Armadillo looks nice as the driver.
Where's the gun from, I cannot recognise it?

I had to have said this before about your vehicles, but I'll say it again: whenever I see your stuff it gives me that same feeling I got as a kid seeing a brochure for a new wave of vehicles. Just amazing.

Thank you so much. I try hard to make my vehicles look like they could be part of the original line.
