    a shiny citroen 1940

    Hi all,

    First dio to be posted from me...probably the last as well!

    The cv 11 has been staring at me for donkeys longing to be in a dio, so I thought that maybe I could stick it in a french street with some lost german soldatsops: who had commandeered it!

    Here's the cv 11, tips and comments welcome

        Looking forward to seeing the rest of it! Perhaps an arrest scene if the right figures can be found?

        Cheers

            Sorry Monica, I painted it ages ago and for the life of me I can't remember what I used.

            Thanks for everyone's interest and encouragement.

              Its got a good shine on it.

              As Monica, I think you got the colour of the leather rather good.

              A pity that the black paintwork is so uneven. You might of gotten away with it if it was not as shiny. If its only like that on the roof, if could pay to rub it down and get it more even abd give it a new coat of black and gloss.

                  What scale is the Citroen Lee? I built this in 1/48 some time ago. It's a great looking vehicle and will a good subject for your dio.

                  Look forward to seeing more.

                  Cheers

                    It's 1/35 (sorry Paul, my badops. There's no pe in sight, its all hand brushed, so no airbrushes were harmed in this build...or any of my builds actually!.

                    All figures will be kit, except for the odd chop here and there.

                    Patrick, I'm working on the arrest! Just putting the evidence together

                    Cheers all

                        Hi all,

                        Just a small update, a figure I've been working on, he's feeling a bit sorry for himself, being caught...naughty boy!

                        Anyway, other than painting and fixing legs, he's all but complete.

                        The usual advisories are fine thank you

                          Looks nice Lee, he's got the perfect ' up to no good ' look about him!

                          Cheers

                            He does look a shifty character and nicely painted too, as is the Citroen. All looking good so far Lee.
