    1/35 wooden crates & tarpaulins

    Please can anyone advise where or buy or who makes 1/35 wooden crates and tarpaulins. I want to add these to the back of my IBG models Bedford QL.


    Thank you

                Scott, Its not a bad kit but there are one or two fitting problems to overcome namely the cab front to back wall. I had to pack this out with plastic card.


                It was detailled in one of the military model mags last summer and the same issue was reported then too.


                Give it a whirl it is rather detailed but unfortunately most of it is hidden.


                Cheers Scott

                  I was going to suggest that. I'm sure Ron would be the man to chip in. He made some very convincing looking boxes/crates for his Rorke's Drift dio and has a knack for things like this.


                  Cheers

                    In my Bedford, I cut blocks of polystyrene foam then covered them with tissue soaked in PVA glue.


                    I'm sure it's on here in the soft skin section....quite a while ago so you will need to dig a bit....

                      I would also lean towards making them. I would try coffee stirrers for the crates and unpatterned tissue paper brushed with diluted PVA for the tarps.
