MMS White metal lorries


Recommended Posts

I have decided to make a start on the numerous vehicles that I have purchased from MMS models.

I have only done a couple previous but now I am on a mission to do a whole lot more.

 

First photo shows two Commer types, the Q15 -15cwt and to the right, the Q2 - 30cwt

There was little in the way of flash to clean up,  they were then washed in soapy water,  before spraying with Grey primer,

The cab section was 'complete' so I had to drill/file the opening out to create the 'open' cab; glazing will be added later . . .

A few parts painted prior to fixing  . . .

There isnt a great deal to do really to build these, what I consider detailed kits, so progress should be swift but then it depends on the demands of SWMBO :huh:

I reckon MMS wheeled vehicles are right up there with the best small scale models, particularly the Crossleys and smaller vehicles like 15cwts and utilities.  I don't like the simplified front axles on some of the 3 tonners but that's easily fixed.

 

I haven't built any MMS Commers so I'll be watching yours with great interest.

 

Cheers
