Series one Custom vehicle ........WIP......

Post by Andy1672 »

Disclaimer ..... this new custom is NOT intended to be an accurate scale model, nor is it intended to be an accurate representation of an existing military vehicle. ...... Its a toy !

My lasest custom is still "work in progress" but seeing as its being a bit of a problematic scratch build job I thought I had better show a face and stop neglecting the forum.

I have been after one of these vehicles for ages, but havent managed to find one cheap ( or one for less than 25 quid !), hence the scratch build attempt.

so .... here is the first pic .... I know this is gonna look sh*t when Im finished, but ... Ive started so ...

I purposely chose not to divulge that information, the main reason being I know this isnt going to end up looking like I want it to !

The pic I posted is 2 days old, I have progressed a bit since then ......

I will say that this is an "enemy" vehicle ........ but dont expect anything too fancy !

..................... TOP TIP ...... never attempt to scratch build !

You took my Rolf Harris comparison to heart, I gather.

Is it a speedboat?
