Well, thanks Peter for setting up this group build. I'll get this first post up as a place-holder and will likely make an actual start in a week or two. So, this is what I'm going with:

Its a new tooling from Airfix and their collaboration in 1/35 with Academy. Sprue shots:

![20230807_120557.jpg 20230807_120557.jpg](https://www.scale-models.co.uk/data/attachments/356/356372-e9c31e0839673bca9a5d4df4be4e9091.jpg)
Yes, not a lot and will likely build-up quite quickly into a sturdy model - unlike the Gecko Models example which I would be highly unlikely to complete even during the extended time we have on this group build. Incidentally, the top sprue is shared with the Airfix K2Y Ambulance that was released last year.
Instructions are the usual Airfix fare, being simple and easy to follow, with colour painting guides:

![20230807_120625.jpg 20230807_120625.jpg](https://www.scale-models.co.uk/data/attachments/356/356374-28b80e336444c87a49c74b0115e99aa3.jpg)
And finally we have a very small decal sheet and even smaller bit of photo-etch:
![20230807_120636.jpg 20230807_120636.jpg](https://www.scale-models.co.uk/data/attachments/356/356375-3d557afb1961daf35bb51e74f5bc9a1a.jpg)
![20230807_120642.jpg 20230807_120642.jpg](https://www.scale-models.co.uk/data/attachments/356/356376-ce764e5d650901ff9bb2c49442ba7a70.jpg)
I'll probably attempt the desert scheme - my Grandfather served in North Africa and Italy during WWII as a baker and I like to imagine he might have travelled about in something like this. More later, once I get started.
