They are about 1mm to long (intentionally) and I will sand that back prior to final assembly when the rear goes on. Also added the PE grill which I’m going paint sand.
Also added running boards either side under the door opening… I’m thinking of leaving that area clear and not adding anything. I may try and make full harness seat belts for the 2 front seats.
Painted 3 of the wheel arches in the normal black (Tamiya rubber black) but left the front left one as I’m going to do that entire front wing in sand …
Will get the lenses on that tomorrow then add the side and tail lights…but not paint them until the end.
Also decided I will make a 5 point full harness seat belt for both front seats. Going to use some PE straps and buckles from the German WW2 webbing set.
5 point harness belts are in,… …they may be a bit thin, but I was just after the visual affect. All parts are from the German WW2 webbing PE set …the seats and straps will need a general retouch with grey and blue to cover the glue overspill.
Will put together the drivers windscreen and get that attached. The screen is a cut piece from a clear fruit container.
Rear cage is now secured to the body as well … will be putting a few different shades of green to mimick touch up paint repairs…this is the post Apocalypse don’t forget … You would use what tones were available…
Looks Great, Johnny. I Will ride along when the apocalypse hits
In the meantime my entry for this campaign is out to stop the nazi zombie apocalypse. All characters from the board game “Reich busters” as you might recall from a previous post.
If time allows I might add some zombies and a few more heroes as well.
Hate to nitpick but I do think you should add a ladder for the gun crew. Maybe a rope ladder for easy storage or aircraft boarding steps draped with barbed wire as a towed accessory and zombie proof lookout platform.
