Ok...here`s mine
Decided to go big scale and somat civvy to clear my head of NATO 3 tone 
It`s the MAN F2000 6X4 tractor unit 
Made a start on the cab as it`s always the trickiest part to sort out build wise........the usual separate 5 sided affair of two sides and front/back.......plus the roof.
Pics a bit later |

Ok chaps......done a bit of cab work, also tackled the 2 part fuel tank which needed some TLC here and there on the join seam, the front bumper has also been assembled with the steps etc........and managed to get a bit of primer on a coupla bits.
The cab seemed a crisper molding compared to the Renault one and actually behaved quite well during assembly
I`ll slap together the very basic intrior next and then move on to the chassis
Cheers all.........early doors yet and lots to do |
