    Airfix did a 1/76 JCB on a low loader in the 60s. I think it was my first experience of Humbrol yellow. :disappointed2:

          My first go at doing a figure, stop laughing at the back. I know it's not very good but you have to start somewhere and with a bit of dust on the cab windows it will hardly be seen.

          Looking at the photos it would seem I have overdone the dirt on the floor but I can clean that up later.

            Hi Andy
            Late to the party - sorry. What a nice kit, well done and unusual. Your progress to date is great. Nice paint job and realistic chipping. Figure is fine.

              Another little bit of assembly done to the model today.

              Do you think this little guy is trying to tell me to get a move on?

              One of the reasons for the slow progress is that I am also building something else to be part of a proposed diorama, if it ever gets done.

                That's the cab done except for the door as I have not decided whether to have it open or closed.

                  This is as far as it goes for now as it is destined to be part of a diorama, says he hopefully, and this along with another vehicle will need to match the base they stand on so no muddy undercarriage at the moment.

                  I have never attempted a dio before, so don't hold your breath as I may be some time. :anguished:

                        Thanks for the comments guys, I have a rough (very rough) idea for a dio but whether I can bring it to fruition is another matter altogether.
