Does anyone remember seeing the following Mk.IV or Mk.V build on the web in recent months? I forgot to save the link and would love to refer to back it -
British Mk.IV or V *MALE* tank, Meng or Takom built with the left 6pdr canon removed & the gun shield dislodged / resting at an angle in the sponson. The paint finish was what looked like pale earth over green, with a white cross in a circle painted on the hull side.
Any memory jogs or URLs to this build would be gratefully received. I have scoured Google images and The Modelling News - using suitable search terms - and not found it.
Thanks in advance.

I remember having seen a 1/35 diorama of a Mark V in Berlin at the end of WWII quite similar to what you describe. It has been either in a German or English modeling journal, about a month ago. Can't remember the title, though...
Yes, there is definitely something 'odd' about the tank I saw. It wasn't Freikorps, but I get the feeling it was either modelled as a derelict, a captured tank or a post war Russian revolution tank.
I am intrigued to find it again to study the weathering / distressing techniques, as well as the colours & insignia.
