Mean looking 1/72 kit Ian, lots too keep you busy mate. I've never heard of that company, how's the fit?

The fit so far Aaron is good but each part needs cleaning of the mold lines. but to be honest just a quick swipe with the knife sorts it out no problem

Nice, dry rushing really brings out the detail. I fear the carpet monster at that scale, coming along nicely mate.

 

[flyjoe180]

Good start Ian. AN unusual subject, not something we see often, so will be interesting to see the result.

 

[papa 695]

Got the chassis painted, built and weathered. Gone for a dusty look.

Nice work Ian. Love the paint bottle scene

 

[Guest]

In the thumbnail it looks like some sorta tanker truck with the bottle on top. Nice progress.

 

[Ian M]

Beats me how you build these tiny things. Looks like a good kit with detail aplenty.

There is some very nice detail Ian but like you say it's small and the hardest part is cleaning up the parts after being cut off the sprue

 

[yak face]

Excellent work Ian , it looks like a great little kit , whos the maker ?

 

[grumpa]

My compliments to anyone who could work in such a small scale! Am so used to 1/35 don't think I could ever do it ! good work !

 

[aaron]

Nice work Ian, I like your style. The paint bottle is a nice way to show the scale, it's the same size as a lighter making the fuel stains an awesome feat.
