Afternoon Chaps
Orders received Friday from the Father Type for his model railway layout...
Trucks, Flatbeds, for the use of, Timber yard (2) chop chop!
I mean, not like i'm not busy or anything..
The only thing I had that really came close to fitting the bill was a couple of sets of the excellent Bedford QLT/QLD set
Really nice kits, easy to assemble and actually fit quite nicely.
I assembled the chassis and cab as normal, but scratch built the flatbed from plastic card.
Both are finished in Tamiya Acrylics, (Dark Grey) and a couple of shades of brown just to add a bit of weathering.
2 days to finish, had a huge amount of fun and certainly kicked to mojo back into gear again
Dad was pleased as punch and that's all that matters
They aren't supposed to depict any kind of real truck, just two de-mobbed Bedford's with flatbeds added
Hope you enjoy, all comments welcome.
