Going to use these kits, the diorama will show the tractor unit having a problem after depositing the bofors on site and being loaded aboard the transporter

The transporter has good detail for the size, too good in places as the rivets would be about 2 ins wide at full scale:)

Cab went together well, not a lot of filling needed it seems

the destructions show where everything "should" go, that's after you've cut, shaped and moulded the plastic to fit them

Hi Colin, had the same transporter in 1/72 had to bin it in the end nothing would fit together.

Yours is looking good.

It is smaller than what i normally do, and the strains showing :)

Got the majority of the tractor unit together, just some final parts to add, finish off the base paint and itll be time to weather it.

Great work! The Scammell is a favourite vintage truck of mine.

Nice comments ... thank you chaps

Got a few extras scratched up and added, front signage and numberplate for example.

Started to paint the little details such as indicator lenses etc, few more things to do yet

Had to root through my decal spares to get some extras (the ones in the kit are very basic), although not authentic at all, they add a bit of extra detail which im happy with.
