1/72 ZIL-131 Command vehicle paint problems aside.

[David Lovell]

Got it finished I think as usual I'll go back to it in a couple of weeks just to tweak the bits I wasn't happy with ,bit of a strange one this, problems with the paint caused a lack of enthusiasm wich I started to claw back for it only to be completely knocked sideways by the sad news of Simons death (still hard to comprehend even now).





So on with the Mr T group build got a couple lined up looking forward to the start of November. Dave

Considering you were so p****ff with it, its turned out really well . Great weathering on the back unit sides and those doors and step. Super work David.

[Steve Jones]

Well it was well worth the struggle Dave. A wonderful piece of eye candy. Great to see

[David Lovell]

Racey ,Steve many thanks not that sure about it but probably me ,strangely was reading through a thread this morning and Simon as usual had a fair bit of input ,a long time ago back on the old MMweb site the first model I ever blogged a little Polish staff car Simon introduced himself to me and had helped and encouraged me on every build since hard to belive he's not going to pop up anymore very sad.Dave
