Title: 1/35th Hobby Boss Land Rover Defender- Hardtop
Post by: zak on November 08, 2012, 08:01:11 AM

Just posted some pictures of this on the blog as I cannot seem to upload onto the forum.
The kit is clean well presented and so far the fit of parts is excellent.
I have built and painted the engine so far, you will see how small it is, 21 parts.

Hi Zak,
looks very nice work so far.

Great to see (pardon pun) you can get pictures on forum now.

Coming along nicely, keep it up old boy!
