Looking forward to the big reveal  :thumbsup: Where did you source the driver from ? I noticed in my Albatross kit that the pilots are a pair of casual Yanks, with ball caps on. Good for civy stuff or maybe an Air America type.

:cheers:

Shame he didn't have the taste or imagination to choose a British Bike.
James. Francis (Barnett), Norton, Brough (Superior), Scott, Vincent and Greeves are all boys' names but for a girl you could go for Ariel or Velocette.




I don't know. Superior is a name that would suit a few women I knew/know  :rolleyes:

The driver is from the Airfix jeep that comes with the Buffalo IV.  I'd previously modified his beret into hair, shaved his tunic into a pullover and painted him as Fred from Scooby Doo.  This was before I got the Scooby Gang from Elheim figures which made him surplus (can't have 2 Freds!).  He fitted straight into the Morris.

Nothing done today.  Went to Ikea to look at kitchens.  It was hell...

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

One Fred is always enough and 2 is too many  :thumbsup:

I was looking at that Buffalo kit the other day I really should get all the wee dudes together for future considerations.

There are a few in the Bofors/Morris kit (including a driver) and the Airfix Bloodhound kit has some good wee dudes in it.  Including an Alsatian.  I used this Fred as he was already painted and ready to go.

So before drama struck yesterday (see main blog) I took this.

Windows made and installed.  Final assembly completed.  All it needs now is the headlight assembly to be painted and attached and a spot of weathering.

Thanks folks.

And here it is in all its glory.
We would have got away with it if it wasn't for those meddling kids...

I do like small scale armour, great conversion work. :thumbsup:

Zenrat Industries, it's got a kind of Bond ring to me.....
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.
