      Superb work Scottie. The model must be getting very fragile with all your detailing.

        Looking fantastic Scottie. Looks like you cracked the glazing OK.

          It is Jim. I have all the etch tie downs to add yet.

          Tim, I hope so there was no good location on any of them and its the first time I have used a glazing film on curved surfaces.

            Replacing the missing parts continues. The rear tow hook has been scratched believe it of not there are 15 parts in this if you include the punched detail.

              So this might end up roughly 10% kit, 90% scratch by the looks of it.

                    Hi Dude, On this build mate it's a case of no choice as the bits are missing but I am having fun.

                      I think that's normal for Scottie's builds.

                        I'm sorry to say that I don't think I will be finishing this any time soon. The body and chassis I was happy with the result of the modifications and the actual kit parts. But despite 3 attempts to sort the glazing out on the cab, I cannot get a result I am happy with. So this has been put back in the box .

                        This kit has really made ne think twice about doing anymore resin kits, which is a great shame as there are some interesting subjects out there.

                        Thanks for following along and the support.

                        cheers
                        Scottie

                          Sorry to hear that Paul...It seemed like you were having such a good time fixing it......OK, maybe not....Take a break from it and in a few weeks, maybe the urge will strike you to finish it. It was looking really nice Buddy....

                            Cheers Dude, I was really happy with the way the rest of it had turned out but you can't hide glazing issues and the cab is the focal point of a build. I will have a think about what I can do to resolve it and maybe I will get round to it again. Thanks for the support along the way.
