Like Graham, I've always liked the Scorpion - I had a die-cast one as a kid.
The camo looks really good Ian, keep up the good work.

If that's the dinky one I've still got mine in a box somewhere
I used to play with the real ones and the Scimitar, I never called it work I had so much fun.This is looking nice Ian. Always had a soft spot for these lovely little vehicles. Another classic that has not been represented as much as it should have been by the kit manufacturers.
Unfortunately its not in its box its in a packing case somewhere Patrick along with 007s Aston martin and a shadow tank and interceptor from ufoMint in box would fetch a pretty penny

Thanks for that Colin, I'm just going to have it rolled up into the front basket.Hi ian I read your post on ricks harrier thread about camo netting are you wanting to add it as stowage or drape it on to the vehicle as you need to use a different method to attach it
Mix your paint water and PVA in a shallow container
Cut your gauze to size and lay it in your paint mix and let it soak for a minute or two
Use two pairs of tweezers to lift it out by the edges or it will fold on itself and you will never get it untangled
Place on kitchen towel and dab excess off
Place on model and use Tweezer's to shape
Sprinkle with flock then varnish and drybrush
HTH
I've just done one side so far Tony, it's a nice idea of the working tracks, but with the locating pins being so small if you click them in wrong ( which will happen ) then they just fall apart. So I ended up making them into length an link and gluing them into place.Looking really good now Ian , , I dont envy you doing those tracks though! cheers tony
Hope those tracks are better than the kit ones - i found the kit ones too tight, and I was building it for an ex driver, so he'd filled me in on the track tension etc (summat about a fist, if I recall correctly?).Ive got the lights and tools painted, also got the periscopes half painted.
