Hello chaps. Christmas build comes early.  We're off with a very modest start of the floor parts and a side.  Encouraged by my early success of sticking more than two parts together successfully I pressed on with some of the drivers compartment and fuel cell. Paint is Mr Color #69 Off White.  Not much but there's a few less parts in the box now... |

Thank you kind chaps. Another successful session at the kitchen table. Front section of the hull needs some work to make it locate without gaps, nothing too bad. The instructions would have you sorting the running gear by now, I have my reasons why I haven't done mine which I will share with you later. This may come back to bite me later in the build, time will tell.  |

And the last update for a few days. The remaining fender is on, minor criticism is you get minimal contact points to glue them to, I'm sure when the upper hull goes on it will be fine but right now they are a tad flimsy for sausage fingers Mencie.   |

Chaps. Most of the interior is in, at least in the lower hull. I will do some weathering mostly to the high traffic areas and complete detail painting as well.  |
