Looks bloody good to me mate. :smiling3:

cheers Bob.

Why not just a burlap or canvas bag to catch the brass if you're dissatisfied? I thought the belt ammo can & MG mounts were fine.

That is something to consider.

Paul,,, not the bin!!!! Not even close to being bin worthy…detail is stunning as usual…persevere, persevere…unless that build is headed to my bin of course…lol..

Ha ha thanks Joe, I will persevere I have to given the support you guys are showing.

Looking good mate. With my crappy eyesight I couldn't even consider such micro scratchery, more power to you.

Thanks Garry appreciate it.

The details being put into this are amazing.

As everyone has said, the work and skill involved in the is build is way more deserving than the bin, keep up the good work as we all want to learn from you.

The main build is pretty much done now. One thing I had to make was the spot light the kit one was woeful. The main body of the lamp was an old headlight, to this I added a handle, cover clamps a completely new mount and the extension lead. Unfortunately I didn't have the lens anymore so I will add PVA when it has been painted.



Added the Rifle holster to the RH wing, I should have left it off and painted it first. The shovels were also added to which I also added an etch strap.



A shackle has been made from wire.



Finally I have made a start on getting some of the CITB ready for painting there is still a lot to prep.




the sand mats I have purposely left slightly bent and twisted .



cheers

Looking the Dog's Mr. Scottie......Mr. T would be proud of you. Although, he might have had a word or two about the particular shade this kit was molded in........pink Wabbits do come to mind though.

 

[Neil Merryweather]

That shackle is truly insane!
can we have a scaling shot please?

Rick, I hope he is looking down on us and that he approves of what he sees.

Hi Neil,

Great stuff Paul, did you make the sand mats? I was thinking about them for my rally truck but can not be bothered with all that drilling.

The sand mats are etch offerings. If you want them I have the original kit ones.

That shackle is WOW, the fact that you have the screw in it as well is insane ! :surprised:

That is a very kind offer Paul but they may be too small for the large truck tyres, if it's not too much to ask could you measure the width and length of them and let me know please?

Andy.

That shackle..... Simply stunning....

 

[Tworrs]

That's it, I'm taking up knitting!!

Garry , I've found just the thing.

Off to get some knitting started, those tracks will be a lot easier .

Apologies Paul intruding @scottie3158

 

[wotan]

I think this award has been due for some time.

Congratulations Paul on the attribution of the Simon T scratchery award. Bravo

If these are any good send me your address and I will stick them in the post. These matts are a standard size and are designed to interlock to make a larger surface.
