British Light Utility Car 10Hp with Princess Elizabeth.

Tamiya and ICM 1/48

Here is my contribution for the Platinum Jubilee Group Build. The model is based on a very famous picture of Princess Elizabeth standing infront of a Tilley and being inspected by the King. I chose to model her with a skirt as there are other pictures of her in this uniform standing by the K6 Ambulance parked next to the Tilley.

The model is tiny but went together very well. I only deviated from the kit to add some plasticard 'planks' to the taigate as the kit part had ejector pin marks and this was better than sanding it down.

The Princess Elizabeth is from the ICM British air crew set.

Finally I got around to getting some proper photos of this for the gallery!

 

Quite a fun build and I really am happy with the final look actually despite the reputation of the the kit. I had to disect the decals to get the airframe I was after and it worked out ok.

1952 Jaguar XK-120.

 

This is the 1/32 Autocraft kit, which was produced in the UK in 1954.  It's a multi-media kit with plastic, metal, rubber and even cardboard parts.

The BRG paint is Humbrol enamel.  

 

The build thread is here, if you would like to see more.
