Dirty it up a bit & you'll be fine! I think the circular things on top are the carburerrors

Looking really good Monica, very nice paintwork

 

[monica]

ta Richi,Graham,so glad that your liking this one,and very much appreciated comments,

 

[Pikeman]

yes its another one,I have started,


the reason why is ,waiting on things to cure,and for some figures that are late on arriving


hope they show up tomorrow,


so I started this one,as I got at the swap meet last sunday along with 6 other kits,


I have never done a Italeri,kit,


as with most kits need to let bits cure,so your able to move on,so have all the lower hull


done,so let sit,will not be able to start on the wheels till,,saturday,when I have a free day,


before going to Nic for a chat with the lads,which I do enjoy,


One thing I real like about this one has an engine in it,which is a first for me,so I,m so


happy to be able to show it off,


which means I will need to get a set of machines figures for this one,


well do hope you do like my progress so far,

Looks like a nice kit Monica will be following.

 

[monica]

been a bit of a lay off on this ,still have not orded my figures as let,and again stuck,


on a base for it,wanted to do some think a little different,for it,


so I came up with this idea of a church,were there ,stopped to do some running repairs to the engine,,


so I pickup up my windows today from Nic,s ,so was able to make a start on it,


so I hope you do like my idea,and will be working on 3 base,s at once,oh the pain,the pain,as I did


have a few days off as I had two back teeth pulled,ouch is all I will say, :S there is only 3 things I real hate,spiders and spider woman,and dentists,
