dingo Scout Car
« on: November 16, 2020, 08:11:49 PM »
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.

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

I've done some of the interior, it's well detailed but over engineered, There's 33 parts so far.

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.
