    Astra militarum Valkyrie

    A little progress the cockpit interior nearly done some washes etc to do but it's my least favourite part on aircraft. I hadn't realised that these kits have full interior detail so painting that will probably be next before putting it together. Dave

    1/35 Gecko Mk2 Daimler armoured car

    Finally got round to getting some paint down this morning (before DIY starts) quite pleased so far weathering next. One thing I'm have an issue with is the top hatch the way they have the mechanism is totally wrong it should sit flat on the rear of the turret and it should have a leather pad...

    1/35 Gecko Mk2 Daimler armoured car

    Well a very pleasant surprise this morning I turned the last page of the instructions!

    1/35 Gecko Mk2 Daimler armoured car

    This morning I finally got the main gun finished all 24 pieces, the turret interior and the mantlet I think attaching this to the turret is going to be interesting. Dave

    1/35 Gecko Mk2 Daimler armoured car

    Onto the turret this is very delicate there's only six thin struts holding the rotating floor section I'll be amazed if it survives, the radio is on with its guard and the ammo tins for the besa. The main gun is going together a few more bits to go on that. Small steps and it's slowly getting there.

    1/35 Gecko Mk2 Daimler armoured car

    Things moved along the PE continued I've never used so much but after making a small applicator to put tiny amounts of cyano on it became easier to do, hull halves went on to the chassis OK a small clamp helped keep it lined up. A spray of silver (nearly everything inside is silver )and the...

    1/35 Gecko Mk2 Daimler armoured car

    As i say i am started with the build in Dec. so a bit of a catch up for the next few posts then it'll slow up. First up was the drivers seat with all the PE brackets underneath shame it's all hidden once fitted. There's plenty of tie downs etc. to be fitted, I do sometimes consider if they are...

    1/35 Gecko Mk2 Daimler armoured car

    I started this last month so have got on with it I did take pictures upto the current stage. There are a lot of parts and to be honest I'm losing momentum and need a kick up the backside with it. Anyone interested in following proceedings? Dave
