Hi Andy
I'm sure you will do a fine job.
Bearded Dragon? In her late teens my daughter had 3 of them. She called them Flame, Smoke and Ember. Most beautiful and fascinating creatures. When excited or stressed their throats puffed up and turned black. She fed them crickets, locusts and mealworms. The missus was in constant fear that the "food" would escape!

Gonna be an A-team special i recon but it’s totally doable.
If you can get your hands on some dimensions you’ll be well away sir.

[rtfoe]

Definitely doable Andy and I'm sure you'll do a fine job of it. I think the most challenging part would be the curved structure holding the light up.

Once it's done Cohan will need shades.:smiling2:

Cheers,
Richard

I'm sure you can do it Andy, as they say on Top Gear, How hard can it be? :thinking::confounded::rolling:

[JR]

You can do it Andy, have every confidence.
Will sit with Si as he can see better than me and will explain the technical parts. Don't let "Rivet " Jones talk you into any camo .

Keep it to yourself JR. I will hit him with the camouflage option once he's built it. Mums the word

Good luck with the build Andy. I used to have a bearded dragon, he used to come and sit on my lap while I was watching the TV.

[Ian M]

As a part of the current dio, this build should be in the same build thread. I have now merged the two threads to keep things together and easy to follow.

Sorry for the delay in replying Guys..... not had a great deal of site time due to "easing myself back into work",after my rehabilitation period!!
The upside is,i`ve managed to squeeze in some time scratching the Searchlight-more of that later ,
Work on the Bedford has not progressed a lot,just the wheels,fuel tanks and a couple of engine bay type stuff bits done:disappointed2:.

I hope the gun's tyres aren't going to stay green!

Hi Peter,nice to see you,
No,don`t worry,although i have a Propensity for all things Green,(Much like a certain Racey member of this community!!),even I,wouldn`t paint Tyres Green!! :smiling: ......... or would I.....???!!!:thinking:

[The Smythe Meister]

I had the same idea Andy and have the same kit, the Bedford though is also an Italeri kit. Howzat!!! Anyway it'll be a long time before I get to do a dio with so many projects on the go. I haven't compared the Bofors with the Hobbyboss kit that's mounted on a GMC. I think Scotties built that one.

Looking good so far now waiting for your Bedford.

Cheers,
Richard

Thanks very much Richard:thumb2:,
I know what you mean.....We have SO MANY ideas bouncing around in the Bonce that it`s just impossible to get to start them all any time soon!!
"Howzat!!".......Well,SOMEONE had to crowbar that one into the conversation somewhere eh mate?!!:tears-of-joy::tears-of-joy:
Andy

[The Smythe Meister]

Very nice Mr Smith a good " catch " :smiling3: from Evil bay

TAXI for the old fool .

Hmmm "Taxi for the Old Fool"?!.......
Not sure about that John..... A BUS would be better................After all,it`s FREE with your pass at your age mate!!:tears-of-joy::tears-of-joy:.

Evening,(Again!!) Chaps,
Now i`m moving on to the searchlight Scratchy attempt :flushed: !
Ian has moved it from it`s own thread to here,which is fine by me,the reason i gave it a separate thread was purely because it`s my first ever scratch build,so thought it needed "Distance",however,as it would,(Hopefully),be good enough to join this Dio when finished,I can see Ian`s point.
Before i reveal my puny efforts at scratching said 60" British Searchlight Trailer,and there are still parts to be added yet,i would like to thank everyone who`s taken the time to look in or comment on my thread.....it really has brought a smile to my face:thumb2:,
So,here are my,rather tardy responses to you..........

[The Smythe Meister]

looks like fun.
I'm in

Hello Neil,
Thanks for looking in!
I gotta admit,that this has been immense fun so far :thumb2: ,
I think i`ve found a type of modelling that was totally alien to me not so long ago!
Andy
