    Thanks mate, but not happy with the shovel I can still see a ridge where I cleaned off the moulded detail, and the etch has come unstuck so it is not on straight.

      The jerrycan strap has a bulge at the top, under the handles?

      Edit: Cross-post, but yeah, you’re right, the shovel bracket is not on straight and you can still see the moulded-on one.

            If I'm not mistaken, that's a fine bit of progress. Looks good to me Scottie.

              Looking good Paul. It’s your eye for correction of the minor errors that lifts your builds so high.

                Looks amazing, despite what you class as mistakes.

                I doubt I'd be able to see them in real life, never mind fix them :smiling5:

                      I'm always surprised at the errors & omissions in my work revealed by the camera in my scale. PaulE

                        I know you think it's right but as they say, "The camera never lies"

                          Except when it does It will show up things you won’t see on the real thing after a coat of paint, and at the same time it won’t show stuff you can see on the real thing because of the way the paint ends up looking in the photo …

                            Your eye for detail is what makes your builds, Paul, as Paul E says, the camera shows up all the issues.

                              Thanks Graeme, I wish I had the skills to do some of the things I see done.

                                This is taking a while to build the parts need a lot of clean up. The front bulkhead has been started with the addition of some PE. The radio was rebuilt and a cable added to the handset.

                                The side wall has had new rivets and tie downs added. the lockers have had PE or scratched additions. One box had a big blow hole so it was easier to make one out of laminated strips.

                                Although this is not an easy build I am enjoying it.
