Very nice job Andy, the cargo, map and figure details finishes it off a treat.

Looks good Andy. Any diorama?
Thanks chaps. Adrian in answer to your question as far as the diorama goes I have not yet mastered the art of building such . This was a build for a friend who wanted a Famo , North African theatre so I built it, never asked him if he wanted it on sand. I will have to experiment with different bases. Any of you blokes got any ideas where to start. Builds of vehicles, yes I have an idea, but sticking them onto a base I always seem to shy away from.

By the way forgot to add - Hornet Heads save for the driver who was a spares box Tamiya head

Fantastic attention to detail and a great looking build one to be very proud of. I can only dream of one of my builds ever looking as good.
The Famo is a great subject, and you really got to grips with this kit, a Famo always looks good in a dio.....and your Famo will do any dio proud.
