I'd name him Gavin.

Very similar to Tamiya's new release of the Char B1 bis, but I bet it's a different variant, of which I have no idea! :o

My vote is on the B-2 F. Some 60 B1-bis vehicles had their 75 mm gun replaced by a flame-thrower from November 1941 to June 1942.

Looks more like a `Beryl` than a Gavin to me :lol:

So Eleanor would be a more appropriate name Andrew? ;)

I thought Beyrl was Gavin's sister, Plushy.....? :thumb:

Lovely name that :) You know that which English King married Eleanor of Aquitaine was the million pound question the first time TV show "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?" was won here.

I bought a rear shot of "Aquitaine" on eBaywatch a few years ago. Neither Antoine Misner (http://www.chars-francais.net/) or myself could ID it until some other pics appeared. As usual an easy match up once you get a couple more from a different angle ;) It was knocked out NE of Paris, sort of north from Reims and a bit south of Charleroi in Belgium. I might do her when HLJ ship me my Tamiya kit.
