This is my completed submission for Dave's emergency build.. The build blog can be found here.
It was fun build. The kit went together very well. It was brush painted and weathered with Vallejo paints, washes and pigments.
I had a few problems with disintegrating decals so had to use substitutes.
The model came with 4 figures and I decided to include two of them with a wounded soldier entering the ambulance. The box art showed a step on the tailgate but there was nothing on the sprue or in the instructions for this, so I added one (my first scratchery LOL). This was also my first attempt at building and painting figures and that was very enjoyable, although difficult in parts.
Thanks for Dave for organising this build. Thanks to everyone for all the support and encouragement along the way and special thanks to Tim and Neil for helping with the step and pushing me out of my comfort zone with their encouragement on that and the figures.
