15 CWT truck

... can't sleep, too many thoughts running round my brain!
Here is another one from the display case, built in May 2018.

There aren't many build photos, and the camo is quite likely fanciful - I wanted to try two things, the pattern that was used in Tunisia on some trucks, not long before the Sicilian campaign, and experiment with a slightly pinkish base.

So put yourself in the shoes of the desert rat who's come through the Western Desert and finds that Tunisia actually has a lot of vegetation. Slap on some green!
That's my story! and I'm sticking to it!

At some point I want to add stowage, maybe call up some figures...

Kitted out, cutting out the grill and adding my own screening was interesting... and don't know what I was thinking with the rope, looks like a boa!
The leather bucket worked out I think.

What do you think of the 'boudoir' photography?






I think I'll call him Ted... just for scale...



Thanks for checking it out.
