I couldn’t in a million yrs build from scratch. My progress on my store bought kit.

Taped off dash cause it’s going to be 2 tone.

Fun thing to do!

These front end pieces are a real pita to glue together.

Put the plates on the engine Dog House cover and it is large but the rear portion is perfect for a table or perhaps some stationary seating while the Winnebago is parked.

what is the holed-base you are using and did you make those clipstix? nice

 

[nolasally]

@grinx76 No sir. It was a kit with base and about 10 sticks with alligators on one end. Bought at hobby lobby.

 

[Lucius Mojo]

Fully installed the floor .I used .60 Styrene.

Made the lower grille ,since it has to be installed at an angle ,I will carefully cut it in two.

1/72 Airfix OS2U Kingfisher. My older brother built and painted the kit while I weather it and made the water effect display.

Built my little Metal Earth Spirit of St Louis model over the weekend. It measures a whopping 3.5" long.

Nice job ,those Metal Earth kits are tricky.

Thanks, all those years of building 1/72 aircraft and tanks helped with building these. Though I do not remember ever needing a magnifying glass with those, some of those slots are so tiny but I am having a good time building these. I have a ME-109 on deck for my next build so that should be interesting.

 

[Lucius Mojo]

Cool

What an f’ing PITA to attach these headers.
