simmerit Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Hello there, just come onto this forum. I've tended to focus on Land Rovers a bit having started to model again about a year or so ago after a 32 year gap. here are a couple I'm on with Not sure if these photo bucket cut and pastes will work but I guess I'll find out in a minute!

heloman1 Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Those look rather tasty, what scale are we looking at? I like the sit of the trailer, slightly nose down. Colin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simmerit Posted January 9, 2013 Author Share Posted January 9, 2013 Hello mate, they are 1/35. The wagons are Revell, bought at extortionate price from WaltBay. Both have Accurate Armour Series III wheels on them as the wheels shipped are six stud and wrong. TUAAMs are Accurate Armour also as are the whip antenna, Sankey's are Accurate Armour. The old Revell kits are left hand drive unfortunately. I just picked up a new Italeri one which I'm going to chop down to an 88, and much to my surprise its right hand drive. Still got a bit to do on the tilts and the FFR wants a Dexion rail in and a Clansman if I ever get round to it. They look quite realistic when the little fellas are out on patrol with them. Bit scary really Si Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

perdu Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 I used to know him, or his brother, very realistic figures. Looks good, maybe the DPM could do with matting down a touch, I only ever had a sheen on my windproof, when it was "new", never on the trousers. Unless it was a proper mucky wet day... The Rovers look blooming good, get busy with the Dexion. It will be well worth it. I managed to bend the tow bar on one of those trailers once. REME sgt was displeased Wasn't too chuffed myself, steer right if you need to go left backwards chump! (by the way, yes wrong part of the forum but, I think it does us good to look outside our own boxes occasionally) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Murdo Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Oooooh!!! Very nice! Cracking figgies. Is that a 12m Mast for a "Pineapple" Antenna on the back of the Rover in the first pic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
