So im going braille scale
Airfix Scammel transporter and a Churchill on its trailer

​​​​These are a little bit ancient.... Churchill is from 1961, Scammel is 1962

Depending on how long it ends up i might have a base i can do for this

Great choice mate, brings back memories for me, as I'm sure I built the little Scammel transporter when I was a nipper, about 10 or 12, so nearly 50 years ago! Lol.....Will look forward to seeing how it turns out... 😊
 
Those are two iconic old Airfix kits. Hopefully they will still build up nicely. Should be fun.

Ive done the scammel a few times and not had much drama but ive always had problems with the churchill, this time ive got an idea to try something different with the road wheels
 
I remember building one when they came out (!) I Now have "one or two" of the newer ones in 1/35
I will tag along for the 'nostalgia'.
 
Nice choices Paul. I'm another one who built these waaay back..... Following.

Nick.
 
Ive done the scammel several times over the decades.... This is by far the worst example with regards to flash and poor moulding..... But im getting there
Despite that you have it shaping up very well. Great job.
