  1. Greetings one and all ..as usual it’s been a while ..the vehicle is nearly done with photos sent to Pearsons …due to the fragile nature the vehicle needs a base it’s all very well putting it on a bit of wood but I like to set a scene and as always a figure to add a sense of scale .
  2. Indeed that would be awful.. nice looking Sultan for me I still struggle that you have the print lines if and that particular bit irritates me..tempted but still holding off on getting something from them ..
  3. Great effort mate ..fine perseverance.
  4. Bit of an update .. first of all I needed a stretcher for the side of the vehicle..most if not all model stretchers are solid plastic however the ones used in Afghan were the mesh folding ones ..so after a bot of pondering I raided the gift box supply’s ..and would you believe it some posh mesh ribbon same width as the afore mentioned..and set to work .. and a few teaser shots …working on a suitable base as well and the whole thing together is a tad fragile.. enjoy and thanks for looking in ..
  5. It’s looking very nice ..look forward to getting hands on with these when they finally become available
  6. Lovely build and neat scratch building
  7. Excellent stuff ..watching this ..was out at Akrotiri and was involved in OP Hyperion ..
  8. Really well done with this .Despite the errors it’s turn out very well.. some nice paint work on this.
  9. It tells you right at the very start of the instructions..about load outs and what holes to drill
  10. We always towed the launcher unarmed..the missiles were in there own crates ..
  11. Green and sand batus .Canada sand these served in gulf war one [easy wing change ] black green sand 80s Cyprus..only one vehicle..
  12. Have to say that’s looking rather marvellous….
  13. Oh I see thought they were in the kit …yes the odd seat colours were standard from the factory …which was odd to start with
  14. Are you not using the seat decals ?
  15. Happy new year all …..onward with glue and plastic card ..and all you 3D printers [dark magic ] bit more completed on the husky .interior is pretty much done ..attention turned to the exterior ..the vehicle I’m modelling has various different attachments added to it ..obviously not standard on the kit ..so wire cutters were added along with the fixings for the boomerang system..the rear load bed was detailed with the various bolts latches added ..some came from the AA detail set which in parts is appalling..and needed rectifying. The antennas were wired in and bar clamps made ..the side locker was opened up as this houses the BV [boiling vessel ]in practice they were often moved to the cab. exterior electrical sockets detailed . also the crew doors had the glow in the dark emergency signs added which work …anti slip added to the cab roof I also noticed on some builds that the read body had tendency to tilt slightly backwards it’s due to the chassis not having a great amount of support between the main chassis and rear section a a bit of plastic rod cures that and makes it much firmer. anyway enough drivel on with the picture..doors first and a sneak preview..
  16. I’m so tempted by one of these ..have to say you are doing a fine job so far mate ..
  17. That’s coming along a treat mate ..some nice build detailing..
