Hi folks,

In between decals for my MIG 29 and waiting for suitable weather for spraying I've been persevering with some individual track links on my GB. Grrrrrrrrr!!!!!

(You may have noticed my posts!)

Anyway, I figured I could start something a little easier and a bit unusual to break the monotony.

I say easier, there's just over 800 parts! But it is Trumpeter which are supposed to be pretty good - and there ain't any tracks!

I'll try and get some progress pics as I go but here are just some of the instruction pages and sprues.

Looks a bit of a beast don't it. I love it when something diverse like this crops up, reminds us that there is more to modelling than aircraft, tanks and bikes lol. Will certainly be interested in this one.

Tony, the main body of the engine is to be painted orange - hence the orange plastic!

Hi Ian,

I got some of it done - then the carpet monster struck. I got to figure out a way to replace the victim! I'll see if I can put some pics together of my progress.
