Thanks mate. I will have to see if I can get some of the wood on line it looks like a laser cut veneer for future use. I will take your word on the green thing.

Andrew, cheers fella happy you approve.
Beautiful work Scottie. I have some honeysuckle I swear is related. I'll try some saltwater.
Thanks Paul, It can't hurt to try but if it walks up stairs it's probably not working :smiling:
Right you are Scottie......the old salt water trick, gets 'em every time!! Crassula??.....as in "Count Crassula"?

I think you could be right about the glycerin they have been soaking for a few days, only time will tell.
Cheers Mike slow but steady not getting a lot of time at the bench.
Decided to detail the kit stowage boxes a little and then thought it would be good to show one of them open. As the plastic was thick and had no base it was easier to make a new one. Once built I added some clutter including some etch plates, jugs and eating irons. A pva cloth, scratched cooker and pot and finally some scratched mugs.
The lid was added with a retaining chain. Which I have just noticed has come adrift.
Next on with the turret.
cheers

Not much done again, but work on the turret has started.(photos to follow) sorted out the stowage lockers. And dry fitted the body to the chassis ready to mark out for paint.
The Boyes anti-tank rifle's barrel snapped so I made one from copper rod. It took ages to put a taper on it and it probably needs a bit more. Next the muzzle break was scratched from 3 pieces.
cheers

That's coming along very nicely.
Hi Scottie
I do like the open storage box. It's detail like that that raises a model above the norm. Well done with the Boyes. Tapering copper rod is a thankless task.

That’s good looking stuff Paul. Love the well stuffed storage box.
