Hello all,
I signed up for this campaign but i am unable to upload pictures as i don`t yet have the right equipment.
2 of my Land Rovers are almost finished, a 1/24 `Piglet` and a 1/24 BATUS Range Safety Series 3, my other one is a 1/24 Series 3 Recce that i`ve barely started.
I`ll try and get our kid to take some pictures with his phone to see if i can then upload them.

I have a request now, if that is all right.
I need another GPMG set up from the 1/24 Recce kit for my 4th 1/24 Landie, i`m back dating one to a Series 2 `Pinkie`, if i can get another GPMG.

So, has any one got a spare they don`t want or need that they can sell to me, please?

Thanks

Malcolm

Managed to get some build time last night and I think I have finished the oil washes on the interior of the rear area. Need to seal this up and then do the chipping and dry brushing. The whole exterior of the kit still needs to be primed and painted, so hopefully this will happen soon. Any word on an extension yet? Cheers.

I finished my 1 build a while ago but ordered 2 Landyis from Lucky Models about a month before this campaign started, the Pink Panther that I built here and the other 1 still has yet to arrive Man these guys over there are slow, they should not list a kit as available if they can't get it

Well as the land rover campaign begins to draw to a close I am trying to get it finished.



Not a huge amount left to do but as alsways in this country iut seems that the weather may be an issue. Most of the body and other items are base coated and I am just awaiting another break in tyhe weather to get a base coat of Future Klear down for the decals.



Thats all for now but I will post more later if I get a chance.

Managed to get a bit of time yesterday and made some progress. Managed to get the rear area glued to the chassis frame and pulled the masks off of the interior windows. The exterior windows and the front windshield (windscreen) all got masked off. Need to mask the rear doors interior side in prep for exterior painting. Once those are masked then all of the exterior will be painted and then final assembly. I am hopeful that I can accomplish some of that this week so that we can get weathering done next week before the extended deadline is up. Cheers.

Well gents, I think it is time that I officially throw in the towel. With moving our store taking up most of the past two to three months I just wasn't able to get it all done. Great campaign, thank you Scott for suggesting this and putting it all together. I will try to put up some photos of where I am now and hopefully we'll get some feedback. Cheers again, it has been fun sorry that I wasn't able to finish with you all.
