Scotties Rolls Royce

[Steve-the-Duck]

Mike I'm no gardener and I don't know what they are but they are about 4-5cm long so they could be ok for some desert scenes. Glad you like the RR.

Um, not wishing to worry anyone, but those plant things look a little too much like something out of Quatermass...

Great work so far, looking very nice.

They look like those stumpy cactus you get, or the start of a palm tree - well spotted.

[Steve Jones]

Luvin your style Scottie. Great work on the detailing and good luck on your new business venture - Mini Cacti 'R' Us :smiling5: :thumb2:

That's what I was thinking.

cheers Steve, I will have a play and if they are any good I will let people have some if they want them.

I was thinking those stems may turn out to be triffids........:anguished:

[Allen Dewire]

Beautiful work Bro!!! And you thought I wasn't keeping an eye out...Your work just gets better and better with each project you do!!! I almost bought this kit 5 times now, but the rubber tires put me off. It's still such a cool looking armored car though!!!....

I hope Graeme isn't right in his thinking. We got enough horror going around right now. A good old film from long ago just the same..............

Oi, on behalf of Graeme, less of the old, young whippersnapper! And Quatermass is even older...
Oh, no, wait. I guess we are old. I mean, who of ver kidz these days even know what a plastic model kit is?

BTW Paul, did you say this kit doesn't have an interior at all? The Roden job has a full engine and, admittedly spartan, fighting compartment so all hatches can be opened - maybe time to pass on my half-built job
Or finish it, hehe

Funny you should say that they walked to the other side of the desk last night :smiling:

Allen good to see you mate, glad you approve. Touch wood I have been lucky with rubber tyres todate. It was a good film still enjoy watching it when its repeated.

Still a good film but an excellent year.

We must be old but you cant beat a good old British horror. I didn't get the Roden as had heard some bad reviews if you dont feel like finishing it give me a shout

Spent an hour or so this morning adding rivet details to the back. Also added some details to the storage box from the spares box and copper wire. Just the other side to do now.






cheers

Paul, my Roden job has the engine mostly complete and painted, and I started work on the front suspension - it stalled because I wanted to do a Fordson in Iraq, but of course I'd got the 1920 version. Because it was cheap. And that needed a LOT of work
Now I'm almost entirely over to 28mm, I've got three different Rollers - only one complete
If'n you're interested in my part built beast we can work summat out

All that woodwork is VERY snazzy. Is that part of the kit or your excellent additions?

Steve,
I would like to see you finish it off some day. The woodwork is nice and comes with the etch set al I had to do was add the rivet detail.

[outrunner]

Fantastic detail work, I thought I was a patient man but you must be the proverbial Saint.

Andy.

OMG how could I miss this...sorry ... what a beauty....
