robw_uk Posted June 3, 2014 Author Share Posted June 3, 2014 well i think building is complete... need to mask off the inside (well fill with tissue) then I can start painting - intend to try shading with black/grey/white before the first coat... 14018262377883 by Rob Worth, on Flickr 14018262520974 by Rob Worth, on Flickr 14018262299542 by Rob Worth, on Flickr and some brief glimpses of the weathered interior (not easy to see at the moment) 14018261252830 by Rob Worth, on Flickr 14018261824701 by Rob Worth, on Flickr 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete H Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 Looking "spiffy" Rob. Are you using the kit supplied tracks? I bought the AFV Club separate links for mine and regretted it. They are supposed to be workable,,,,, but I think they only work in the designers mind!!!! Ended up having to glue em together and even then I aren't so happy. The track pads seem to be very "tall" if that's the right description. If'n I was to do another (entirely possible),,, would suggest Modelkasten or Fruil would be best way to proceed. Anyways, am looking forward to seeing how this one turns out. Regards Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robw_uk Posted June 3, 2014 Author Share Posted June 3, 2014 thanks Pete - yes have the kit rubber tracks... just joined them, but not certain it worked - will see -if they fail am gonna have to look at AM and put this on hold.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark_JS Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 Nice progress there, good looking interior, can't wait to see it when it's finished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonyG Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Looking good. I've got the Dragon version of this one, so I might be 'borrowing' some ideas for painting the interior, when I get a round tuit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robw_uk Posted June 4, 2014 Author Share Posted June 4, 2014 thanks all... Tony - I borrowed from others but be my guest. I approached it as... they can remove the boxes so they would be scuffed, where would they hold them/move them... how does that affect the rest of the interior (assumed the center would see the most traffic so that has no base paint left... ) etc etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vally G Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Hi Rob, Nice work on the interior. Looking forward to seeing how it gets "masked". Kind regards, Adam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robw_uk Posted June 4, 2014 Author Share Posted June 4, 2014 Hi Rob, Nice work on the interior. Looking forward to seeing how it gets "masked". Kind regards, Adam clag a load of tissue paper in the body, masking tape to keep it in... doors blu-tacked together cos they open quite easily..... but photos later once i am in from work... it will start off a patch work of grey, white & black....
