Rick,
Lovely scratchery mate, mine is easy its twice the size of yours.

[Mini Me]

Right Scottie, but when I get in the "groove" ,it's just about how much fiddly stuff I want to do....once painted, half this stuff becomes invisible!

Brilliant Rick .
Any more of those delightful Hobnobs please !

Looking forward to the paint now Rick, great work

[Mini Me]

Sorry JR......you cleaned me out of Hobnobs!

[Mini Me]

Thanks Mick, should be going on with the paint in the next day or so.....got the last bits on this earlier today so when the glue sets the paint will happen.:thumb2:

Sorry JR......you cleaned me out of Hobnobs!

Baker Benny it’s time to make more and yes I’ve seen you in action making these.

[Mini Me]

We'll see Lee, right now I'm thinking about my next build for the diorama. It will be a Phanomen Granit 25H ambulance. Maybe I'll cook up a batch when I start that build thread. :thumb2:

Well here is the last update before paint flies......wipers installed, added rear license plate with a tail light stem, added the tow hitch, drilled out the headlight buckets for lenses and as a final touch, I bent the front axle to give the appearance of the wheels turned slightly to the left.....just to add interest on the diorama........oops, just noticed I need to install the driver's side mirror.

Thanks Guys, just finished cleaning the A/B.....all went according to plan. I love working with Enamel paint, properly thinned it covers fantastic and smooths right out. Never a tip clog or any spitting. :smiling:
