1/15 Scale Gecko

Image 

BaxMod Models was requested by Crayford International to build 15 1/15 scale Gecko models.  At that stage Crayford International was busy constructing the vehicles at the Atlantis plant and had delivered some of the vehicles to the SANDF for testing.

Modelers that have done scratch building before will know that the most difficult part of the process is the research stage.  Getting the correct photos and drawings needed to start always delay the project, but in the case of the Gecko, Crayford International was most helpful.  They allowed us access to the factory and we had the opportunity to take photos of the completed vehicle as well as the different stages of construction.  Drawings were provided and what normally would have been a concern, turned into the easiest part of the project.
