  1. Just an update folks - I received a message on another forum about this build, it was from the son of a gentkeman who served on The Ole Girl, anyway he expressed how much he loved it so I passed it on with my blessing to him. OC.
  2. Yep! thats a good enough place to do you modeling apart from the sand getting in your build.......😄 OC.
  3. That doesn't look too bad Denis - think they will shape up quite well - looking forward to more pregress mate. OC.
  4. I agree with Edward - what a super way of showing her off - great imagination excellently done. OC.
  5. So it starts - first was the belly addional armour plate to help defend against IED's, this has to be bent slightly at the front to follow the slope of the bottom, this was then glued down, next came the Two sides - these simply followed some lugs and glued, then the rear plate was glued in place. Next will be all the Thousands of parts including some PE to go on the back plate. OC.
  6. I found this not sure if it will help? http://www.peachmountain.com/5star/Tanks_Patton_Tanks_M29_Tank.aspx OC.
  7. Just dug the instruction manual out the box............😲 its like a library in a manual - but very well laid out and written, looks like my sub builds with it should work starting with the bottom tub. OC.
  8. Think I can start this regardless of the rain - I could build the sub-assemblies like the bottom tub with all its bits and pieces, the top hull and turret, I will then be able to support them from underneath to prime/paint them, then attach them when thoroughly dry. OC.
  9. Another interesting build my friend, I have Two experiences of the type as the Beetle - a friend used to have a modified "Boy Racer" type, and earlier than that a schoolboy friends farther used to own a stock one with no mods, very quirky cars. OC.
  10. Tell me about it, I should have invested in some of that there waterproof paint😀 but the lamp is perfic, so I guess I could do some more figures - can't have enough figures. OC.
  11. Need to wait till it stops raining outside so I can prime/paint the spues - then I can start building, so tempted to have a go at modeling the interior but "Boy" is it complex - OC. Pic off the net.
