hi , now i know why M R models were showing so much interest in my scratchbuilt one a few years back , and why they took all those photos , i should hve copyrighted the model , they made a nice job of it , your extra work is taking it to an other level well done cheers ian

Lee,

This bad-boy is progressing wonderfull.

Hey, regarding that rear cargo bed panel, can you tell me how you got the curve?
Also, where did you get the C- and I- beam parts?

Big difference in the resin vs the fabricated parts.

DThanks,
Dave

hi i am surprised you have not seen it it must be at least 6 years old and has made three visits to the sunderland model show in that time , i am lucky as i have an original russian workshop manual for it and have all the info i needed to build mine , funny i have never taken any photos of my model , it is always others who do it for me. see what i can come up with cheers ian

Hi Twig, you are doing a very nice model,
Also the scratchbuilt is a very good work
Congrats and good work
regards

One word... INCREDIBLE!

Great work so far Lee!!!
Bravissimo

Hi Lee,

Please stop with that ARV you drive me crazy

I have a TM for this vehicle somewhere and maybe I can help you out if there is a problem.

Lee,
Once again, you show some exemplary work. I am amazed by the level of detail and lengths you go to.
Simply superb!!

Thanks for the tip Lee, I may dig this BTT out and do some fiddling with it.

Ron: Lets share some of the pics either here or on the Heavy Metal area. Lets talk off-line.

This one looks very very good. Be proud of your work here.

Can you post a quick paragraph or two of your soldering technique, i.e. what you learned--tips--etc? It would make some interesting reading---Thanks.

Steve

FINNISH IT>>>>>NOW !!!

hi , lee it is possible for me to photo copy the whole manual , but that would work out more than it is worth , i paid £15-00 for it and to copy it would cost over £21-00 i know as i did for a guy and never got paid , a french man who's model may be the one you saw in the photos , if you let me know what part you want , i can then hone it down to that arears .and let you know how much it is going to cost . cheers ian

Anothert masterpiece in the making. You will have a way with brass and P.E. my man. This one will be a winner for sure. If you get tired of it send it my way..Can't wait to see it completed.
