Quick and easy....kept me occupied on a wet and windy saturday

That's pretty impressive for a wooden kit. Looks well designed. Is it glued or simply push together?

 

[PaulTRose]

Totally pushed together

I might go back for the Falcon

Hi Paul,
Very nicely done Sir. Was never a big follower of the Star Wars saga, but I do remember doing a job in Cannon studio in Boreham wood. They were shooting a scene involving the ?? Is it Ewoks ? Studio was covered with hundreds of small people, it was very surreal.

funny you should say that......theres a what if ive always wanted to do

AMT did the trade federation tank from episode 1........ive done it and it was a nice kit but id love to get another cos the hatch on top is just right for a 1/35 tank commander figure.......german 3 colour camo.. ...scurzen armour on the turret like a panzer 4

Seen it done once and always appealed

Miko (how about an. . . . . erm. . . . . a totally opposite what if? . . . .I know! a bubble gum pink Stuka! Ha!)

 

[PaulTRose]

a bubble gum pink Stuka! Ha!)

i once did a pink with green spots harrier.......long whiff story about a fictional central american county asking HMG to help stop hamster poacher from the country next door so the RAF got to have a flight of harriers in a specialised camo lol

I also once did a ford mustang in bubblegum pink.....classic Bullitt era mustang......back then i used to frequent a long gone forum that was mainly car related and was roughly 50/50 brit/murrican

The yanks were calling me all sorts of names for doing this car icon in pink......could almost imagine them frothing at the mouth...then i posted a link showing hugh hefner giving playboy bunnies of the year a pink car....often a mustang.....then another showing that playboy pink was an official ford optional extra on 60s era mustangs.....oh i did smile
