Mike,
what a fantastic result! It's an awkward little kit, but you have turned it into a real beauty.
Are you planning any occupants?

Dave,
Many thanks for the comment. The worst part for me was in fact the tracks, I did not allow for the thickness of paint, so had some fun with a pair of tweezers applying pressure to get them to seat. Bit like squeezing a fat woman into a corset - you kept going around tucking in here and there...
Crew - Yes, it has to have a crew, it is one of those models that needs them to set it off, so will be playing about with body parts and putty, and a base in the near future.

Well I have clearly had my head in the sand to have missed the final reveal. Great to see the close ups along with the commentary. Its up there with the best of them. Terrific work sir. Permission to carry on LOL
 
Hi Mike
A truly excellent result. The extra detailing, the thoughtful little touches like the frayed tow rope and the very believable weathering are all tributes to your modelling skills.

Hi Jim,
Many thanks, and pleased you enjoyed it.
Mike.
 
Great work. The detail you have encompassed is quite something else. That dust is making my nose twitch all the way over here.
