Holy smokes ! Excellent work ! What did you use ? A microscope and tweezers ? I had no idea they were that tiny. My favourite was number 1, until I saw number  :thumbsup:

Excellent work on the interior details on all three. Excellent dirt and weathering on number 1. I just love 3 tho, that would be an awesome street racer.

:cheers:

All three are excellent. I really like the sign "Turning owners into mechanics.." though. There is a lot of truth to that.

Those are excellent - nice one (nice three)!

I have one of these in the stash with a very particular, not to say peculiar, project in mind... :wacko:

Bit low for a camel?  ;)

Could just have easily have been the driver. I remember reading one of Spike Milligan's wartime books where he commented on the fact that when their convoy stopped, men who had miles of empty desert to choose from would still pee on the wheels of their own trucks.... :banghead:

Not a bad idea really. Helped to cool overheated tyres.  ;)
Owing to the current financial difficulties, the light at the end of the tunnel will be turned off until further notice.

Would some snow be involved, by any chance?  ;D :lol:

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

Mate was a RASC driver in the 50/60's and can remember having an accident in the Omani desert with nothing around for miles and then having to fill in the standard army accident form which required you draw a map showing the road layout and all the obstacles etc as on an insurance claim form. He ended up on a charge  ;D
