Not being one to make a kit oob or as per the easy path i decided to convert/alter these 2 Both Revell recent re-releases, both 1/35. Now does anyone know of a decent scale hinge, cos the tamiya tape hinges are frankly a pain and look rubbish.

I’ve become a bit fed up with my normal fare of 1/35 AFV & 1/48 jets. So looking for inspiration I perused the stash & found, none at all. So I watched a film. “World War Z” with Brad Pitt, cracking film, I like the whole zombie apocalypse “thing”, walking dead etc. it got me thinking……… Zombie 1-1 by phil da greek, on Flickr Zombie escape truck. Some imagination, some scratch building & a chance to empty the spares box of all sorts of accumulated bits. Half decent kit, Unimog camper van with a zombie bent. I’ve built this kit before, it’s not bad, lots of clean up required & a definite attention to detail is required if we’re not going to have upside down exhausts. Zombie 1-4 by phil da greek, on Flickr Zombie 1-3 by phil da greek, on Flickr The kit comes with nasty “real” rubber tyres, the grey ones are some resin after market LAV tyres which are a nice size. Managed to snap the gear stick in an attempt to remove the flash. Zombie 1-5 by phil da greek, on Flickr Zombie 1-2 by phil da greek, on Flickr The cab is a one piece affair that is good & square but devoid of any detail, so some cleaning up & a mess on as it’s going to be posed doors open. I’ve made more progress than this, moving on to a completed & primed chassis. Thanks for any interest you’ve had & I’ll keep you posted.

Hi, all, I'm trying to convert the CMK Unimog to an RAF one as used on the RAFG Harrier Force in the mid 1980s. Does anyone know if the hard top Moggy was used on the HF sqns, or were they all soft tops? I have a faint memory that the hard top ones were usually restricted to bomb dumps, but those brain cells are not very reliable. I only have a few pics from 4 Sqn and they all show soft tops, which will need rather more work on the cab. Thanks Tim
