Looks the part mate. Cleanly built as well. I love the chains on the socket covers. I would be well happy with that.

Thanks very much Tim :smiling: ,
.... And you recognised my efforts as the Socket covers!!..... That makes me chuffed!!.... They took me a LOT of fiddling i can tell you!!:rolling:
Cheers for looking in mate:thumb2:,

Rick! You`re too kind Sir:surprised:!
Once i`ve added the few bits that are required to finish the trolley off i`ll make a start on making/assembling the Searchlight itself:cold-sweat:,BUT......
........... I have a plan!!!

Excellent scratchery Andy, it is so good I thought you took a shot of a Tamiya 4x4 chassis... that's how much I know about searchlight bogies. :smiling6:
With this part done we'll be in for a real ride with the next installment.

Cheers,
Richard

 

[JayCee]

I gotta admit,without being presumptuous,i`m pretty pleased with how it`s coming together,even if it isn`t EXACTLY accurate!:rolling:

Cheers

Cheers Si !!
Glad you approve,after all,your build of a Hotel type building about 8/9 years ago,was one of the reasons that i got drawn into the hobby again after a 30 odd year absence!!

Cheers Jim:smiling:,
That`s very kind of you! ......... It does take me a LOT of time to get these bits together and added to the main body.
Cheers,
Andy

 

[The Smythe Meister]

Yep,i`m back to offend your peepers with yet more of my Scratchy attempts!!:dizzy:
This will be the last time that the Searchlight trailer will be seen prior to Primer spraying.("Thank God for that i can hear you say!!:tears-of-joy: ).
It will be Primered tomorrow,and then i`ll start scratching the Generator,but i thought i`d put this up briefly as i`ve done the Tow bar,(which was pretty rudimentary !),added the Wheel hub covers and the Base for the Light itself....... it`s been bloody good fun,if i say so myself!!:smiling:
So,here are a couple of pics...................



OK,So that`s three!!...... excuse my indulgence!! :nerd:
So then,this will get sprayed tomorrow,and then i`ll start the Generator,
Thank you all for such a fantastic following on this one,it`s both humbling,and rewarding!
Cheers for now Guys,thanks as always,
Keep Safe,
Andy
