Thank you Janne for the comments

Decided I should continue the weathering while I can still get to it.

Added some chips and scratches on top of the stains I had done earlier.

A couple of more pic.........







Thank you looking and comments are always welcome.

Randy

Ahh, good weathering too.

Cheers

Hi Randy,

Absolutely brillient work on the vehicle, a real joy to watch this build.

Al

Thank you Janne,

Thank you Al, have been enjoying your Market Garden campaigne postings!

Randy

You my friend need to seek professional help as soon as humanly possible! In the words of Popeye "Blow Me Down!" ........ The RR stuff is simply amazing as well - very inspiring Randy.

Hi Chris, Thanks for looking in again and yea I'm probably a little nuts. Any progress on the Leb. staghound?

Randy

Progress has slowed down. Almost all of my really good interior reference material is for the Stag T17E1. This has not been a problem to date because the interiors are the same up to this point. The issue is the right hand side of the forward compartment.
The T17E2 was fitted with a No. 19 radio set where the other stags had the hull mounted .30 cal. machine gun installed and the position of several spare parts and small bits are different.
The few photos I have do not show the radio in place and are of cars that I'm not sure that they don't have changes made to them post WW2.

I've decided to go forward with what info I do have and try an be logical about the rest.

The Tamiya Unniversal Carrier kit donated it's radio set. Added some wiring for the two antennas and power cords .



The shelf and brackets....



Some test fitting ......







Will try and post some stuff later. Thanks for looking in.

Randy

Thank you for looking in and comments are always welcome.

Randy

I give up!

That is stunning work mate!

Wow........I had no idea that anything could be done with such detail. It is as if some little 1/35 scale guy is going to get in and drive it away. Most of us will NEVER get quite as good at it as you are and to you I say, fantastic job. How do you work so small ? Do you use jewelers optics and tools? Just curious........again ,great job...........Al .......the not quite as good modeler.

Murdo, Thank you for commenting, hope you like how it turns out.

Al V., Appreicate the kind words. Funny you should mention the scale , I'm an armor newbie who thinks this 1/35 stuff is huge . Usually work in 1/87th or 1/48 for my train stuff.

Randy

i canot say for sure exactly what would be carried on board in real life, but the likelihood is that the tools woudl be American and supplied with the vehicle, but the personal equipment woudl be British or Canadian. These were built to british contracts whereas lend lease vehicles often included a full set of American issue kit including helmets and headsets

Personal arms woudl have been standard issue for the service that used them - at the time these entered service I believe this probably means Stens rather than Thompsons

Armoured car crews were remarkably gifted at "liberating" stuff so you've got a bit of latitude when it comes to adding the personal touch. Somewhere I havea photo of a Staghound with what looks like a folding picnic table and chairs strapped to the rear fender

simply awesome, keep posting please.

Thanks for the imput Aidrian, I think you are right. Since the flashlights and canteens had specific holders and clips built into the hull I'll keep a couple of those. Since I'm going Canadian with this one I will swap for sten guns and also add the british helmuts.

V , Thank you for looking in.

Randy

A few photos today...

Testing the roof section in place...
