    Thanks for the idea @minitnkr, gonna have a ponder about it.. :thumb2: been back to the bench today, just to start the finishing bits.... had a play with a bit of 'dust'..and came up with an idea for fastening the flag down.. I'm not sure the 'dusty' side windows portray a half opened window...

    1/35 Meng 'Toyota Hi-lux' Libyan Technical pick up with ZPU-1 Anti Aircraft Cannon..

    I might have a go at straightening the bent bit Andy, although I have found a picture of an Israeli version of this cannon with no sight unit, hmmmmm, any how a few pics of the actual Pickup. Not sure about actually using the base it's on unless I can come up with a realistic way way to change...

    1/35 Meng 'Toyota Hi-lux' Libyan Technical pick up with ZPU-1 Anti Aircraft Cannon..

    So After my Israeli M6 build I was at a loss as to what to build next, maybe a little bit of burn out.....so upon sifting through the stash I spotted a quick mojo booster....the Meng Toyota pickup truck I bought a few months ago...so I set to work with what I thought would be nothing more than a...

    David Vs Goliath... Meng 1/35 6B Magach

    Thanks to each and everyone of you, I'm pleased you like the outcome... I've really enjoyed building this despite it taking soo long...(most of which was due to me contemplating with how to pull it all together.), and I'd highly recommend this kit to anybody, it's a bit more expensive than some...

    David Vs Goliath... Meng 1/35 6B Magach

    After nearly six months working on this I'm sticking a fork in it and calling it done...there are a couple of items I could keep plugging at to finish better, but at what point do you say 'that's it.. no more?'..... It's the Meng 6B Magach, built literally out of the box with just a couple of...

    Palestinian boy throwing rocks

    Had a chance to throw a bit of paint at him... He does needs a bit more work when he's dried off, maybe a contrasting image on his shirt, highlights, and maybe a repaint of his flesh tones.... (I'm not completely happy with his face, at close range it does look like the moulds are beginning...

    Info needed.... M.2 (Ma Deuce) .50 Cal Machine gun

    Gents does anybody know if the carrying handle on the .50 cal machine gun normally rests downwards or upwards, I'm working my way through the Meng Magach m6 and the 'ranging gun' above the main gun seems to have the handle pointing / resting 'upwards' and other images I've found seem to have it...
