1/35 SAS Land Rover "Pink Panther"

This is my take on it. Pink over a vehicle brought from England and rushed into service so it looks very rushed with obvious green showing through.

Looking good to me, love the back story. Pantherman

Ok. I had trouble with the spent casing boxes, I kind of rigged one and left the other off.

I realized this morning that I missed drilling out the holes on the front for those two bits that go next to the turn signals. I studied those instructions when drilling out the others and just missed those two holes completely.

It's OK. I did the same thing. I just lined up the bit on the outside to the hole on the other side and drilled right on through.

That vehicle has been up and down the riverbank a few times. Looks very well used.
Nice job. Looks great

Thanks for the kind words. I had planned this look from the start and wasn't sure how I would do on it but I think it turned out nice. Now to add all the other bits...

Well I'm getting close now to finishing old Pinky but I have a few little extras to sort out and the sand weathering. Pantherman

Nearly there now. Just got to add a few tools and kit to the lads, sort some sand where he's digging and a general weathering of boot's and kit. Pantherman

Bear43 · Oct 7, 2023

That looks fantastic!

TimM63 · Oct 7, 2023

That looks amazing. One day I will be able to do figures like that.

Takes a steady hand but I really enjoy doing the figures, almost as much as the main build. Pantherman

Ok, I'm calling this one done. Let me know if you spot anything that needs tweaking. Thoroughly enjoyed this build with my fellow modelers. Pantherman
