        What, it only looks like that and doesn't work when you move the crane?
        Shame on you, Paul, what a lousy construction! :tears-of-joy:

              Hello all, spent some time working on the hollingbones not sure if that is the correct spelling. The kit ones were very simplified. The vehicle is capable of raising and lowering the bones via a small winch on the rear of the vehicle, the crew viewing the procedure via a camera mounted on one of the legs. The moulded details were removed and then added from sheet, pewter and copper. One leg was replaced as the square box on the leg is hollow and secured by straps. This section was allow the cables to be run from the camera to the vehicle. The hook and cable details were also added that are completely missing from the kit.

              The plug sockets were also added to the hull rear ready for the cable to be added later.

                  Bloomin' amazing, (as usual with a Scottie build). Just amazing.
                  Methinks I need some 1 -1 tuition on all the magical detail you keep on putting into your builds. Even close up they look just perfect.

                          The front winch cover has been repositioned to allow for the additional armour.
