PB was having issues, could not link properly, hopefully you can now see the pics Billy.

Blast, I am having issues in trying to get the images from PB. I can see the pics but obviously you cannot Will try and sort and then edit.

PHOTOBUCKET WAS PLAYING UP, HOPEFULLY IT IS SORTED AND YOU CAN NOW SEE THE PICS I picked up this Hobby Engine RC truck for £5...yep, a fiver, cheapest this is still going for is £65!. It had a few problems so it was a complete strip down. Electrics sorted and the tipper now goes up and down, goes and turns and the lights work. While in bits I primed and repainted, did some chipping and then airbrushed some dirt and added some rust pigment to the tub. Si:)

Thanks Vince, this has been sold for £55, need the room and I won't slap the electronics in it.

UPDATE ON THIS. Tracks painted/weathered. Hull and turret weathered more, numbers etc painted on. Around 90% finished. Si:)

Cheers Vince, I have been working on it this morning, done the cables etc. Tracks are also weathered. Once finished it will sit in the work shed until I decide or need space

Last Christmas my lad got me a second hand King Tiger. I have just got around to looking at it and sorting it. The electrics are a mess and need stripping and resorting, gearboxes kaput. The 2.4 system was dodgy-found a corroded and rusty terminal in the transmitter-sorted this and slapped into my lads Sherman, so something good from the tank. The hatches are all broken...etc. I was getting fed up and wondered weather to just pass on the shell when I thought I would use it as a test bed for colour schemes, camo etc. So, this is what we have now, some weathering and light rusting still to do, then it is decision time to shelve until I can afford the internals or pass on. Si:)

Ta very much, pleased you like the hunk-of-junk I thought the DeAgostini version is already painted?

great idea...know I was going wrong somewhere

Cheers Badder, glad you like it. I have a black background somewhere but could I hell as find it. Figured some daylight shots might show the paintwork better, will try again and find the black cloth

Just completed my second 1/72 Falcon, this one is not as dirty and is in the flight configuration so need to make a stand for her. Hope you enjoy. Si:)

Nice, what are you using for weathering?

Now this is a interesting little fellow, like him and the colour scheme you have done.

Hiya Pat. Very nice indeed, mind you I like your vehicles very much-seen more on another site Lovely paintwork and finish.

I love this, hand painted and totally superb! Lovely work on the whole fleet, great finishes.

I like these, something well different, and why not? Superb models, really enjoyed looking at these, thank you.

Very kind words indeed, many thanks. I had a decal set from the 'Joker' 1/24 car and thought that would look cool.

I thank you, yes I think he would agree with you

That is a wonderful concept and model superbly brought to life by the quality finish and presentation. I really do like this.

Now this is superb! Really like it and it has given me a boost to get on with mine. I have four astronauts and was thinking similar lines on Mars.

The Scimitar is a heavily modified Star Courier built by the Republic Sienar Corporation. After the death of Darth Maul his ship ended up in the possession of Darth Sidius, it was located at the Imperial Facility 729-D were it was looked after and maintained by droid 0-66. Later on it was given to the bounty hunter Chanath Cha to locate his stolen royal yacht 'Imperialis'. This is what we now see, the ship underwent a complete overhaul, with upgraded sensors, stealth, engine, shields and weapon systems. The story is from the comic book series but the ship and its other modifications are by me with scratch made and kit bashed parts. Si:)

Not doing much, but with the weather slightly better taking time in the work shed to do stuff, although it takes a while. This is a runner, just a workhorse so a bit battered

Ta Billy Chuffed you like it mate.

Thanks, I use a combination of three rusts, new, old and rail to give the look I am after. Glad you like it Hi Vince! Nice of you to drop in and have a look. Glad you like it mate.

They did one from the spin off Shaun the Sheep from Wallace and Gromit, they only did a limited run.
