Cub cargo

[Leighbo]

Hi Guys


Life is so busy at the moment I am really struggling to find time to work, complete DIY, projects, build kits and post my progress so apologies for my lack of posting. Better to be busy though!


Been fitting this build in the last week referencing quite a few period photographs of various 2 1/2 ton trucks with the unusual load of a Piper Cub around around 1944. There aren't many plane kits available in 1/35 and I have mixed with 1/32 but luckily the Cub is available from Bronco so I went for this along with Tamiyas truck kit. Both were straight forward, easy builds, even taking the wings off the plane was easy! 


Anyway here's the progress so far

















Sorry about the quickie photos, thanks for looking!

That cub looks the bizz, used to have a big RC one in that colour scheme, this makes me want one of these!

Great idea for a build, and really well executed. I'd really like to see the photos it's based on.
