[papa 695]

Since the Merlin is on hold I thought I'd start this kit. A gift from my Son for Christmas, and as you can see I've got some little goodies to go with it

I'm glad to hear that Paul, as I've got one of them to do also, with 2 quads.

Ok I've got some work done on this, got all the axles done and painted. Also some of the main cab and some sub sections built, and got some PE on.

I built the coyote and the jackal a while back. A couple of fiddly bits but on the whole a couple of decent kits. Looks like your off to a cracking start.

Got a little bit more done to this one, I painted the dashboard then realised that there are decals for it.

Got the photo etch side baskets done and fitted, also started the seat belts. But I've decided to make a diorama out of this, the Jackle and two quads that I've got. So I'm going to changed some of the baskets and seat belts, and get some figures for it.

It is looking really good Ian. Doing a great job with such a small scale.
I have a question. What are those thin long bits in this photo?

Nice work so far Ian,
like it, that photo etch gives it a good amount of detail

Aah, I can see that now. Just goes to show you that I haven't got a clue with armoured vehicles.
Thanks for educating me.

Got a little more done to this one.

Nice work Ian. Is it me or does this look like it was designed by a committee that never met each other? :smiling5:

 

[papa 695]

I've been playing with a little PE for the gun and doors today.

Missed this one Ian. Looking very good indeed. Will there be a driver?

The plan is to do a little diorama, I'll be adding a Jackle two quad bikes and some figures ( at some point ).
