      Not quite finished the build yet but spent some time with rather large decals today.

      And some small ones.

      Took fully half an hour to do that seat, only another two to do.
      The large panel in the first picture is the one I will have to cut if I want the sides to open, and I want them to open. New task for me as I have never cut a panel that has decals on before, although I did have a try with a spare bit of flat plastic with a couple of old decals applied to it and it cut OK so here's hoping.

      Andy.

          Seats in and roll cage installed now I can start building the cab around that.

          And no, it is not primer it is the light grey called for in the instructions.

          Andy.

                  Well, I think that went quite well although I must admit there was a bead or two of sweat on my forehead as if I had damaged the panel/decal the truck may well have ended up in the bin.

                  Fits together nicely.

                  After I put the decal on I gave it a good dose of Micro Sol and left it for a few days to properly settle down which seems to be the way to go, just got the other one to do now.

                  Andy.

                          First panel fitted and the cab sat on to see where it fits and where I can mount it as not content with making life hard with opening panels I also want a tilt cab.

                          The cab is all ready for paint as soon as I remember to mask the square hole behind the drivers door.

                          The scribblings on the screen are just there to see how much screen gets cleared as I will be putting some dust on the model when it's done, looking at a video of the truck going through large, muddy puddles a huge area of the screen gets cleared by the 3 wipers.

                          Andy.

                              Looking great Andy.

                              I know the military version I built comes with the parts needed to display the cab tilted should you so wish, have they kept them in that kit?

                                No, the cab on this is meant to be fixed, but I am sure I can fix that....................eventually.
