Lovinit. I think I'd lose the loose dirty bullets though. PaulE
Paul. Thanks mate, trouble is I don't think I can unstick them now but I might give them another coat of paint to lift the colours a bit.

Scottie,
I just saw this build yesterday mate and have now caught up, awesome build. The weapons look brilliant I do like what you have done with the Lewis guns.
The figures are also really good .
I can't wait to see the Chevy I also have one so watching with interest. If I may I might pull up a camel next to John.

There has to be a joke there somewhere Paul. Ah yes, I remember. 'Once upon a time........'

Great work going on mate. All looking good.

I think it goes along the lines of, "well Sir we normally ride the camel to town"

The next part of the build has started. I have built the chassis. I have decided not to add any detail here as it won't be seen that said I will probably add some break lines.The front bumper has been made out of pewter as I made a right pigs ear of the kit one and the eduard etch. Hopefully it doesn't look to bad.

Stunning scratch work on the bumper mate. I would be more than happy with that. I hope drilling the holes wasnt too much trouble. Great start mate:thumb2::thumb2:

Steve,

Glad you like it. drilling the holes was quite straight forward as the pewter is soft and I drilled them before forming the shape.
