And the donkey end. Lights are just bits of clear sprue with clear green and red paint. The ammo boxes are, which look more and more like loaves of bread are tank tracks glued to styrene stock. The ammo racks drove me nuts and I built three different arrangements none of which worked before I said bugger it and just put them on a shelf.
There's still some more stuff to go in but it's gotta be done from the outside. What you cant see is the runners in the floor which came out pretty neat, I'll take some pics of the finished interior when it's all done when some light gets in from the windows.

Right, tomorrow I get to do my least favourite part, masking the canopy AAARRRRGHHHH :angry:
So following someones advice on here I got some parafilm M, which should be the easiest way to do a complex canopy. I've only used it the once on my Crusader and followed the unstructions but still found it kinda hard to work with.
Any tips?

I mean, JEEZ! WOW! INSANE! OBTUSE! HEINOUS! RADICALLYFANTABULOUSLY GA-GA-OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHWOWZA!



I just don't know how you can put sooooooo mush work into the insides, only to have them closed up!



WHAT AN AMAZING JOB! AMAZING!

Leigh that is stunning, I really can't think of the right words -

Please tell us you will be sending some of these interior shots to FSM or some similar mag ?

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Totally stunned and awed at the quality of this build. It is amazing, the level of detail is a wonder to behold. This needs to be entered into compatitions as it'd sweep the board. Leigh, you are a master.

Now this is what it's all about! Creative, well executed, believable and inspirational all at the same time. Most excellent!  


I really like the way all the little bits have come together. :wub:

If this were my build this is where I would totally screw up the outside after all the work on the inside  :wacko:

Leigh,

After seeing your work, I am seriously thinking of giving the whole modelling game away. I just cannot compete.
