Lazlo Woodbine Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Finally finished it, not 100% happy but pleased with how it turned out. It represents the factory fresh version as built by Marshalls and is based on a couple of pictures from the official manual, plus lots of magazine articles and photos. Thanks for looking Gary 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tonyot Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 Thats a lovely model, I remember the Pathfinder Platoon using these in the 1980`s in a green and black scheme with regular tyres and they were covered with camouflage scrim,....they looked like bushes armed with Gimpy`s! Great stuff, Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heloman1 Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 Great model, no matter waht you do to a Land Raver, it's never going to look billiant. I do like your tarps and seat cover, most convincing. Colin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lazlo Woodbine Posted August 20, 2014 Author Share Posted August 20, 2014 Thanks for the kind comments, I'm about 98 per cent happy with it but kept finding more details too add and had to hand paint it instead of spraying it, but now know the pitfalls. I had started to use tamiya masking tape for the canvas bits but someone suggested rizla papers and white glue which was much better. The next two I'm doing will be early 70s in Northern Ireland and an earlier type modified by The unit this will be based on the Italeri kit as it is not as good as the tamiya for a Marshalls conversion.

Lazlo Woodbine Posted September 3, 2014 Author Share Posted September 3, 2014 I used rizla papers and diluted white glue and also tamiya masking tape cut to shape on some parts. Gary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
