Just some mug shots of this one and where it is now.....
Had a go at doing the etch wheels, 5 parts....2 of which are etch, started by doing one of the carried side spare wheels.....i surmised that if that fecked up at least it wouldn`t be one of the road wheels, the etch sits over the hub assembly and then you have to curve all the sections together to give a flying saucer shape ( thats probably the trickiest part coz you have to get them all even and touching........as we know...etch does have a mind of it`s own sometimes)........once thats done you have to insert it between the 2 tyre halves........IN A FECKIN` SMALL RECESS!!!...... hence fiddly part number 2!!!
However.........i do think they look good and to be honest worth the time, however..thats why i went ahead and did both spares...i`ll see if i`ll still be saying that after the remaining 6 wheels!!
Ta all.

Nice turret, and the MG looks darned good too . I'm looking for a good representation of the MG for my Lanchester at the mo. The CSM MG barrel is just flat without the grooving and that just bites my butt

Wonder if RB Models does a brass replica

Nah, that was the first place I looked. I do have a set of weapons from Master Box, there's a good Vickers in there but the muzzle is crap. Might have to try and swap them, or scratch a muzzle onto the MB barrel cover

Sounds like a straight forward enough plan mucker

Everything that sounds straight forward always goes inside out
