Old Collingwood Posted February 18, 2022 #1 Posted February 18, 2022 Folks I brought this kit last year and although I used some of the parts to make the interior for for my Chally 2, I still have enough in this kit to make a decent model including the engine/engine bay. I thought I would have a break from my Hood mini ship build as I needed a break from mini world. Just a pic of the box for now. OC.

Old Collingwood Posted February 18, 2022 Author #5 Posted February 18, 2022 Evening all, so work begins on this "bemoth" I decided to start in the engine bay (its going to be a bit of a hit or miss as I used some of the parts from this kit to make the interior in my Chally 2 kit - but I should be able to work around it and scratch some parts. Some nice detail that will weather nicely when I get to that stage. OC.

Old Collingwood Posted February 20, 2022 Author #9 Posted February 20, 2022 Evening all, got some good progress on this today, to continue with scratching some of the bulkheads - I had to install the running gear, to fit these I had to drill through one of the bulkeads, then after careful leaveling of all the legs, I was then able to make a bulkhead out of panels - this was fitted on the one side of the bay.

Old Collingwood Posted February 21, 2022 Author #16 Posted February 21, 2022 Evening all, some more progress - I added a few more details to the engine bay, then I decided to have a go at the drivers compartment, I wasn't too sure how this would turn out as I had used some of the parts for my Chally build, one of the main areas was the right hand bulkhead - this I managed to manufacture using some other parts from the kit, the rest of the parts are mainly there - still needs an instument panel making up from scratch.
