So I now have all the front end bodywork fitted and windows in which were a bit tricky from the inside but for me still better than masking, Matt coat done. So now it's just the little details, headlamps, wipers , mirrors and the winch cable for crane/boom whatever you want to call it! Then a final bit of weathering and done I think. Was going to do the black camouflage but totally forgot !! Loved building this once I got back on it, think there might be an artillery tractor parked next to it sometime in the future :smiling: 
John, we had one of these in Germany when I was there. We also had two AEC wreckers.
Mark,
That looks great mate I built one not long ago.

I do actually have a soft spot for all the Scammel trucks and would love to get hold of the Tank Transporter!
All we need is for a manufacturer to bring out some British Heavy artillery for it to drag around.

Thanks Paul. Took plenty of the gun tractors back to the base units for resale . The recovery part looks just like the Leyland version, thanks for posting
Cheers Mark.
Thanks Jim getting there.
No probs, that would look great in 1/35!
Coming on VERY nicely!
Thanks very much Andrew :thumb2: given my limited experience I'm pretty happy how this is going, pretty much on the home straight now so not to much left I can cock up(touch wood)!
Have used brass rod for the winch cable as the supplied option was pretty much fishing line,didn't look right,the rods not perfect but better. 
Just the mirrors,wipers and spare wheel to go on and done, should be in completed section tomorrow :smiling: (if I can take some decent pictures!)
