That's a SERIOUS pile of plastic - now I'm drooling as well! Did I count right 'cos I saw 12 figures?

Hope Ian doesn't mind me answering this but yes there is 12 figures some of the bodies are quite cleverly used twice with the option of different arms and heads.

what a very big amount of pile of plastic in this one,


and how good is that to get the figures as well,

Still browsing the instructions book. God I hate Tamiya with their paint numbers and mixes of a bit of that and a bit of this! 
Started paintwork on the Bf 109. so not long before I grab the sprue cutters ...

Ah but just think of the fun that awaits you when you start building .

OMG! that's my #1 dream kit 9_9  A titanic project to say the least! Would probably take me a better part of a year to complete such an involved kit with my snails pace ^_^


Looking forward to more installments ..........Jim

Looking forward to seeing this one come together Ian, built this one some time ago & it's one sweet kit to build.


Good luck.

Couldn't agree more John for me it rates as one of the best kits I have ever had my paws on.

[Ian M]

So no pressure then  :S

[Guest]

Another massive undertaking there Ian, good luck, will really like to see how this one turns out.

Well rather than just sit and watch paint dry, or pull up weed in the rain I started sticking bits together...


Not a huge amount to show but it's a start


.





The Maybach is only loose  I will paint this up before continuing, but the gearbox is glued A few more bits to go on this yet, then I will paint it before moving on...


Talking of paint- I ordered som this morning and it is already on the way!

Nice start Ian.

[Guest]

[monica]

nice start with this one Ian,liking it so far,

[Pikeman]

Really nice kit Ian,hope you get time to add the trailer as it will look great with that.

[Ian M]

Thanks for the comments chaps and chapet.


Got a few more bits on the rolling chassis done. the wheels are lose and will come off before painting starts.



I will have a ganders at the destructions later, but think this is as far as I can go without starting to paint....Which is good. Need to collect the paint. just got a message that is is at the petrol station ready to pick up...
