Wallace & Gromit
« on: September 17, 2019, 06:42:49 PM »
Well I was going to finish a couple of models and then move onto BODROG  and GRIVITA ( any idea you lot -- clue is it would have put a smile on Haddocks face )
Decided I must get on with this model, I got it at reduced price from Telford a couple of years ago.
Will it be made straight from the box - its me , so not a chance.  As it comes together you will sort out what will eventually happen to it.

Clean up of the seams and a dry run at fitting the sections together.  Now who does he look like ????

You can say anything you like, as long as YOU take the flak. Now the only question is are you talking about Wallace or Gromit ??????

Leaving the who looks like who to the rest of you - a start made on rusting up the van exhaust. 
Before anybody asks it has been painted with Town & Country Scenics RUST-IT - got this last year at Telford. This is the dark colour and when it is dry in about 25mins will add some lighter colour on top of some parts.

Most parts fitted to the underside, basic paint job done (you don't see it so why bother is my motto) now on to the extra bit on the van roof.

Just had a good look at the eyes and decided to remove the dark eye ball centre - they will give the 1000 meter stare.
