This is going to be my next project whilst waiting for some bits to arrive to finish the Cromwell, it's a MiniArt Dingo I bought at a model show last year.
If you've forgotten model shows are where you get up in the middle of the night drive to the location set up walk about have a chat spend lots of cash pack up drive home wait for the next one and repeat, those where the days.

Hi Bob,
Sure this will get the 'super Bob treatment'.
Model show's.........Mmmmm, I can just about remember those.
Cheers,

Model Shows - what?
-
Model Shows -- I thought that was when Kevin used the lash on the club members so that the tables were in the correct position - hohoho - yes another clip round the head when he sees me
-
Ah yes, I remember shows. I'll be watching this build as I've a couple to build as used by the Kiwis.
-
Should be a good model Bob.
-
Looking forward to seeing this built and spending money for models personally and not over the internet!!!

Hi Chris,

Should make a nice model. Model Shows... sounds like heaven.

I've done some of the interior, it's well detailed but over engineered, There's 33 parts so far.
-
Looks good Bob, nice bit of wear on the floor.
-
The detail looks really good especially the radio assembly. Excellent.
-
Scuffing looks great Bob. Hope the exterior gets weathered, I don't like 'clean' models the subject has to look used in my eyes.
-
I've come to the conclusion that this is NOT the easiest kits to build, might look like not much done but there are about 55 parts to the chassis so far give or take a million, I think that the build will nearly be finished before I find out if it sits ok. Now less moaning and more modelling.
-
Keep at it Bob, you will get there.

;) Of course he will.

Looks like lots of fiddly bits, but you're getting there.

Go up a gear Bob and then you'll be able to catch up with Dave.

I think this is typical of many recent kits. I encountered this on the Bronco Staghound which had lots of tiny parts. Thankfully all were cleanly moulded and fitted ok.
Keep at it Bob, the result will be worth it.
-
Getting there, I’ve found that with some of the build it’s best to ignore the instructions.
-
Almost there, building stage finished and sprayed with Tamiya primer from the can, I don't normally do this but there's a lot of brass etch so I think it's best.
-
Looking forward to the finished article.
-
If you left it that colour it could even be called "zombie grey" - hohohoho
Will you put figures with this one Bob ????
-
Like the look of them hull welds.
Clean build. :D

Keep up the good work.

Going to call this one finished, the last one for 2020.
Had a few problems with the suspension all 4 wheels wouldn't sit on the ground, broke one unit in trying to move it, made a repair job and it looks ok now.
the figures are Ultracast standing and Tamiya kneeling.
-
Couple more.
-
Another excellent looking vignette or should it be diorama, lovely.
-
An excellent finish Bob. The diorama looks realistic.
-
Another great model Bob, well done.
-
Very nice, makes me want to have a bash at some armour.
Haddock.

Excellent Bob!
Super job, even super pictures.

Nice work Bob, I love a Bren gun.. 8)
-
That turned out rather well Bob. I really like the finished diorama, well modelled and a believable little scene. Excellent work.
-
That's a lovely end result Bob. I did have the 1/48th Tamiya kit but that went on the SMW Kit Swap. Wish I'd kept it now as you reminded how attractive that little vehicle is.
-
thanks everyone, the Miniart ones are nice but fiddly to make, I have a MK Ib to make during this lockdown.
