I'm after photos of Beckers command vehicle GR 231

Never argue with an idiot; He'll drag you down to his level and beat you by experience.

Buy plenty of Matron's sculpts now!

If he keeps using the chainsaw, the value of his work will soon go up.

Yes Paulr
I was using the description and code from Pendrakens catalogue.
But looks like they have got it wrong they call it Beckers command vehicle.
when it's actually an artillery observation vehicle.
From evidence it looks like there was less than 50 built.
