Hi,
It's a bit quiet here ... so I will show something of the Staghound.
First the art on the box from Bronco.
and the little box from Black Dog with the big set for the Staghound.
The construction drawing starts with both sides of the Staghound. There are a lot of little parts, sometimes so small that I feels that I,m building a Staghound in scale 1/72.
After some hours of work I have finished the 2 first drawings and with the Blackdog parts it looks like this.
On PMMS I found a review with more information:
http://www.perthmilitarymodelling.com/reviews/vehicles/bronco/cb35011.html
Hope you like it, till next time!

Nice build Scott, good luck with the rest.
I have also a new update.
The build went smooth althought Bronco needs a lot of litte parts to make something and not always good to work with because some parts are so small that even a kit on scale 1/72 is bigger.
But with patience it work out.
I decided to make a Candian version. After a black primer I sprayed some Vallejo green color on the Staghound, finished it with a varnish layer for the decals, putted the decals on and sealed them with a semi-gloss varnish layer.
The Staghoud is ready for weathering.
Today I painted the wheels and the stowage.
So, al lot of works is done, still a lot of work will come.
Good luck everybody on this campagne!

Well my 234/4 is slowly advancing, these last weeks I've been trying to find some references for the interior, it's a shame that the detailed interior from the Dragon kit is barely visible, even with all the vision ports opened.
Pictures will be posted as soon as I get my camera at my old house...I've been a little lazy I admit...

Aloha All,
Some great builds going on here.
I'm joining in the fun. I had ordered a LAV-25 with some accessories, but they all seem to be on indefinite backorder, so I'll come in with Tamiya's 1/48th scale M8 Greyhound from the stash.
Happy Modelling, -zon
