Your usual high standard of workmanship, adding life to a model. Good idea of using the add on armour as a background item. The non slip is just right, no need to tidy it up as in reality it gets worn away with boots scuffing it.
As for the fine sand, buy one of the cheap egg timers with the sand in the plastic containers.

Cheers mate, that's a good idea with the egg timer.

The tool locker has been painted and the tools and shackles added, also a couple of rags. This had to be done so I could fit it to the interior. Very little can be seen from the outside.



The decals are quite disappointing with just black lines for text, that said it looks worse in the photo.

cheers

Brilliant Scottie. Wonderful detailing. The oily rags are genius - great bit of realism.

Thanks Jim most of it can't be seen when installed.

No worries Lee good to see you.

The interior is coming along. The hull halves are not joined just placed together to give an idea of what can be seen. There is a separate roof panel that I could leave off.

Thank you Steve

I think I would leave that roof separate, just so you can show off the interior when you want to.

 

[Jim R]

The detail is superb. The fact that you have to peer through doors and hatches somehow makes it more realistic and interesting.

I'm jealous!

[Lee Drennen]

Very convincing

 

[vizenz]

This just looks fantastic. Will you build the German or Canadian variant?

Jakko that is my thoughts as well. I will have to add a bit of detail to the inner face as well as the exterior.

Cheers Jim, I will as I said to Jakko removable but as you say it does look good peeking in.

I'm jealous!

Steve, thanks mate.

Very convincing

Thanks Lee.

Andreas, still not 100% sure but leaning towards the German version.

 

[scottie3158]

Not a lot done can't really keep the mojo going on this one. That said the mounting pins have been made and fitted and my references show the hoops along the top of the crew compartment.







cheers
Scottie

 

[Andy T]

You say you haven't done much, but what you have looks excellent.

 

[Guest]

Andreas, still not 100% sure but leaning towards the German version.

Or do a little bit more work and you can have the Dutch version Mainly involves replacing the smoke launchers and antenna mountings, off the top of my head, and swapping the AAMG, if you fit that, for a MAG.

 

[Guest]

You ask if you should leave the top loose - nawww!!! let 'em get eye strain looking in the doors....
As for the rest of your work - brilliant as always.
I get the mojo slipping in and out, getting that myself with the Doher where I find sitting on my arris munching on a Magnum and shouting at the tv seems the better of two evils....
