discussion RPM 1:35 Ford Tfc Armoured Car

[wasdale32]

Picked this up at the recent Boscombe Down Model Show - a diminutive armoured car based on the Ford Model T.



Instructions printed on the back of the box




What's in the box …



First stage is the chassis... some broken spars replaced with micro-rod



And the body... the grid gives some clue to the size …




and the turret



All parts done and primed - discovered I only had white primer but couldn't be bothered to wait



And with its paint job

That's a cracking little build of an unusual vehicle.

Thanks Guys,

not overjoyed with the paint job and the photos show up the issues - I used siliputty as a mask which has worked really well previously but I think its left behind some oily residue as some of the paint has "split" so I should probably ditch the putty and get a fresh batch.

The kit was only £7 and was a spur of the moment buy as I just liked the look
