This is Gecko 1/35 All Terrain Mobility Platform (ATMP), started a few days ago. it's nearly been the flying version a few times, it's going together slowly.

Looking good Bob. I presume this is a fairly modern piece of kit?

This looks like the moon buggy from Space 1999.
Looking forward to seeing this one built.
Nice one Bob.

I've managed to do a bit more. not impressed with this build very few locating points, instructions vague/ wrong in places and wheel stations have unbelievable tiny locating points. not giving up but glad when it's finished.

The detail of the mouldings looks impressive and I guess in spite of the assembly trials it will make an interesting and impressive finished model. I've full confidence in you Bob to pull it off.

Hi Bob,
Looking forward to seeing the finished item.
As my lad say's, (Grizz it!) He's a WO1 now, so knows how hard things can be, but if you persevere, you will get there.
Looking nice, compact and relevant.
Cheers,
Bigkev
I hope my next is always better
