Outstanding Scottie! How did you get the wheel movement? Are the torsion bars all loose? Superb work all round my friend

Thanks mate, the kit had working suspension so it was just a case of working out which wheels would be up or down then fixing them in place hopefully I got it looking half way decent.

Paul,

Very, very nicely done indeed.

ATB.

Cheers Andrew, very kind of you.

Loved the bogie. Always love your gardening. Great use of railroad.

Thank you Paul, it's a lot easier in this scale.

cheers Rick, I have spent a lot of time swearing trying to get the figures to sit correctly in the hatches. Hopefully I can make a half decent job of painting them.

Definitely a winner Paul. The suspension looks just right and you nailed the road wheel positions. At first, I thought the fern plant looked a little out of place, but the more you look at it, it fits right in....Bring on the figs Buddy!!!

The only thing missing is a train for the tracks though..............................Just kidding.................

Cheers Allen, I did think twice about the fern as well. the train is there but a bit further down the track just out of shot.

It's still a few klicks away down the track but if you listen carefully you can here it.

Looks beautiful Scottie! As the guys have said the suspension looks spot on ! Hmm what is that rythmic rumbling I hear....?

Thanks Rob, glad you like it. Luckily for the crew it's heading away.

Hi Scottie
The base is excellent. I like the railway track idea especially having the tank coming down off the track. Usually the vehicle is modelled climbing up onto the railway.

Cheers Jim, thanks for the kind words. I must admit the first pose was for it to be coming up to the tracks but didn't really like the look of it so turned it round and was much happier with the look.

A hint from my youth, putting your ear on the rail gives even further warning. This was important as the bridge (shortcut to girlfriends' neighborhood) was pretty long and you didn't want to be caught by a train on it.

I have done that myself mate, just make sure you don't put your ear on the 3rd rail lol

Excellent bit of gardening there Scottie. Best bit of rail track I’ve seen in ages as well. Tipping it forward like that is a great way to show off the top of the build. Nice one.
