Si B’s 1/35 Airfix British Army 30-cwt 4x2 G.S truck
Scheme now added. I followed the design given by Airfix but didn’t have any of the humbrol colours suggested in the instructions so matched with tamiya alternatives or mixes. Plenty of careful masking but wasn’t so bad as only really on the cab and not much else. I forgot to take a picture...- Si Benson

Si B’s 1/35 Airfix British Army 30-cwt 4x2 G.S truck
You forgot the first stages that include, work my arse off to make some faceless director even richer, rub head and swear from having my wages messed up for the umpteenth time, tell the wages woman to pop it where the sun don’t shine. Agree to work extra hours, only to find out the manager has...- Si Benson

Si B’s 1/35 Airfix British Army 30-cwt 4x2 G.S truck
Gave the interior some paint and finished adding the last few bits and bobs this morning. Then gave the whole thing a blast of Mr Wotsitsname black primer. I’ll let that dry then it’ll get its base coat and paint scheme.- Si Benson

Si B’s 1/35 Airfix British Army 30-cwt 4x2 G.S truck
Carried on this morning and added the details to the cargo bed. Frames for the canvas tilt and a frame to store the spare tyre. Next up is the cab. All pretty straightforward stuff really but a boo boo in the instructions have you looking for the base of the cab as part C13….. Part C13...- Si Benson

Si B’s 1/35 Airfix British Army 30-cwt 4x2 G.S truck
Work began with chassis assembly. A nice big A4 destruction manual, very easy to follow. Quite a few parts here but all necessary and a reasonable level of detail for the unseen bits. No problems with fit and very little flash.….. Wheels next and again pleased to say they went to together...- Si Benson

Si B’s 1/35 Airfix British Army 30-cwt 4x2 G.S truck
A Christmas present that jumped the queue and has made its way onto the bench. Not built any 1 35 Airfix models before so was keen to see how it went together and I’m pleased to say I’ve not hit any negatives so far. Here’s what you get in the box….- Si Benson

Dragon 1/35 sd.kfz.184 Ferdinand
Thanks for all your positive feedback chaps :smiling4: After a lot of blue tac and masking tape had been applied and much scrutiny, I had nothing left to do but get some colour in the airbrush and hope I hadn’t missed anything! To say I was pleased would be an understatement! It’s gone far...- Si Benson

Hi Dave, I did like your 72 nd elefant/ferdinand, you made a cracking job of that :cool: I had planned on just free handing camo but when I saw this scheme I knew there was no way I’d get it neat enough. As to the Bison, well I seem to of misplaced it :thinking:……I got a little 1/100 Pz...- Si Benson

Got an Amazon voucher for filling out a survey so went looking for something cheap with plenty of bits. £19.01 delivered! Built a different version of the Miniart T-60 kit a while back and enjoyed it so looking forward to building this.
