Ok, I got one of the parts figured out. it was the Tamiya British 25 pounder/quad tractor kit. Now what about the other part??

[Wombat]

Not sure on the part but this'll be a cool build ta follow.

How long is this thing in SS,from my understanding it's quite a bit smaller in length than say the Livery or Movers?

Ya off ta a good start Chris,keep the progress shot's coming,you've caught my eye also.

[JAWS]

This will be a popular kit Chris so very importatant to get it right. We'll see what we can do to make sure that happens.

[Snake Plissken]

Well I got the 1/25 scale Reefer Van to day! So now I can start the side storage containers.

[Snake Plissken]

Need some help in Identifing some parts??

[kbilly]

I think you may have a ship hull there mate, I'll dig some of my kits out and see if any match.

[JAWS]

The lower question mark is definately the back end of a tank or armoured vehicle.

Thanks kbilly
I keep thinking the same thing there! I have look and look
for something that looks like it and nothing?? Hope you can help.

[Snake Plissken]

anyone have any luck out there???

[kbilly]

I looked through all my ship hulls, but didn't find anything that matched

[Snake Plissken]

What about a 1/72 or 1/48 or 1/35 scale B-52 bomber??

[JAWS]

[Snake Plissken]

Well I have a small up date! Working on the cargo boxs,
and got one done. I will be geting the others done to night.

[dbhs]

Cool. Glad to see some more progress on this..

[Snake Plissken]

Ok, now I got the second box done. Now off to the third one!

[dbhs]

I'm not familiar with this studio model. Are there sections that can be duplicated in casting or is each one unique?

There are 4 boxes to the side of the ship, 2 sets for each side.
So there are 16 cargo boxes total for the ship. Now, there are 3
different cargo boxes that I need to make. 2 are the same and 2
that are different from each other. I hope that helps?
