Painted at last, and ready for SMW. I'm far from happy with the paint finish which is due to completely assembling it then painting which is not my normal method, but this was done for a reason.

Following on from my previous build of a standard Mk.1 Moke, see RFI post. I'm now progressing with the version as seen on TV. I've got ahead of myself on this build, hence no WIP photos of how the body goes together. As the photo shows it's mostly been painted, Halfords primer and Citroen Polar white [as I had a can handy] with some smaller parts remaining for detail painting or a coat of Molotow chrome. The tub is a one piece casting with separate grille and bonnet. Added to this is the differently raked windscreen, bumpers with mounts and the centre crossmember in the tub. I've used a full engine block from another kit as I had planned on detailing it and leaving the bonnet open, but plans have changed, a resin sump is supplied. The canopy is a longer version and the seats have solid backs to allow for easier application of the decals for the striped fabric covers, along with a disc for the spare wheel. There are some other minor differences over the standard Moke and I'm sure the keen eyed will spot those. Now the topcoat of paint and lacquer is dry next up is fitting the subrames, suspension and then some interior decals.
