Daimler Dingo (Tamiya. 1:35. 1972 kit)

[dalej2014]

Calling the vehicle and base finished now. I do have figures to add, and I'll probably repost in dioramas once completed. No major issues with the kit or build. Usual Tamiya quality, even for a kit near 50 years old. A few major omissions, such as the radio etc. Forgivable for a kit that age.
I'm quite happy with the result, especially after a thirty year layoff from builds. Many thanks to all the members here for advice, hints and tips. All much appreciated, and added to the build:
If anyone is interested in the build it's here.

If that's you first one in thirty years it's turned out really well,a few more under your belt and you'll be doing some blinding stuff mate. Good job :thumb2:

Thank you Andrew. Much appreciated.
I hope you had the chance to see the two of these at Bovington? They had one in the mini display arena, and another among those on the main field. Invaluable for me for details, such as the aerials.

Hi Dale, saw the one in the main arena not not the mini arena. There was just too much to see in one day if you include the museum... And even then we didn't get to see the whole of the museum property....

It was a great day though.
