discussion Dodge WC51.........Skybow 1/35

[PaulTRose]

Next thing on the bench

Skybow ended up being bought out by afv club

Not sure yet how it will end up cos i have these trailers....the cargo one is actually from the 50s and 60s but im not that picky......might do the trailer full of jerry cans and a couple of oil drums in the back of the WC

I built a Skybow kit and it was pretty good. Unusual subject.

 

[PaulTRose]

just testing....... New phone and everything is different.......... Learning the where and how's lol

Looks like the camera is crap

 

[PaulTRose]

chassis going together very nicely

Cracking start mate I will follow along.

 

[Jim R]

That already looks very nice. Great start.

 

[colin m]

The dirty bits look very well detailed. Nice.

 

[PaulTRose]

This is going together nicely considering they were a new company when it came out

 

[PaulTRose]

Was a bit of a pain spraying....... Airbrush didnt like the paint for some reason.... Dont usually have problems with vallejo but 2 coats sorted it

Still dont know what it will tow so im building both trailers

Water tank is closest to WC period and a common combination in HQ sections.

 

[PaulTRose]

Yeah i know but i got this idea of the trailer loaded to the gunnels with jerry cans and other cargo but i do like the ttank trailer too


Decisions decisions lol

 

[PaulTRose]

Currently on hold for a week

Forgot to take picks but decals are on and then gave it an oil wash so it needs a while to dry

 

[PaulTRose]

Current state of play

Had a matt coat then a muddy dust wash to tone things down

Next step is some assembly then work out which trailor and cargo to use

Hi Paul, sorry I missed the start of this one, it’s coming together very nicely so far, great work.

 

[Jim R]

That's come together nicely. Paint and decals bring it to life.
