Picked this up at the recent Boscombe Down Model Show - a diminutive armoured car based on the Ford Model T.

Instructions printed on the back of the box

What's in the box …

353845

First stage is the chassis... some broken spars replaced with micro-rod

353846

And the body... the grid gives some clue to the size …
353847

353848

and the turret

353849

All parts done and primed - discovered I only had white primer but couldn't be bothered to wait

353850

And with its paint job

Thanks Guys,

not overjoyed with the paint job and the photos show up the issues - I used siliputty as a mask which has worked really well previously but I think its left behind some oily residue as some of the paint has "split" so I should probably ditch the putty and get a fresh batch.

The kit was only £7 and was a spur of the moment buy as I just liked the look
