Thank you all for the comments and likes, not had much time this week for bench time so a small update, I say small but the painting for this little part took a while. Its the rear fuel tank. I'll let you enjoy the pictures. Please enjoy Dan

Blast bags ... that is what I think they are called Kev, those canvas covers you expertly sculpted from the finest milliput

John, that’s looking tops fella. Can’t wait to see more mate

Good to see you back on this again Roger, the rear tanks are shaping up well and will look great once done. Dan

Easy solution, just change the family problem solved !

Good Blagg that fella... First model eh ? I would say sir “ hustler “ All joking aside, great build GRK Looks great indeed.

Lovely start Kev, a kit build eh That’s going to feel a bit like a fish out of water for you matey .... keep a handful of plastic stock close by for those “scratch building” feelings, just so you can sniff or fondle if the urge strikes

Very nice work indeed Francis, top notch build

Cheers John, Going for the Cold War late 80’s - early 90’s scheme in the MERDC cam, saw the MR models set and it looks good indeed. Dan

Looking super John, nice modulation on the paint finish

Perfection in 35th scale everything looks spot on and beautifully rendered.

Cheers Lab Much appreciated for the comments fella, build is at is on hold as I'm taking my time with the details and want to nail it properly. These wagons have a very special place in my heart as I've spilt blood sweet and tears working on them I crewed the Sigs version for almost 8 happy years in all forms from lowly driver to commander and then as a DMI. I'll be back on the build at some point soon. Regards Dan

Tonight's progress, painted up and fitted the alternator to the back of the pack, The pack is now glued in and fixed to the floor. Not much progress but we are moving forward. Dan

Moving along very nicely mate, all looking great

One kit I really fancy getting hold of, looks like your typical AA offering, make sure you de grease the resin before paint fella. Dan
