If it wasn't for James help this model would have still been sitting, half finished, in it's box!!!! Looking at these pics, I think I need to tone the dust down a little ???? It's dry pigment so it will be easy to remove....
 
Looks pretty good to me...
I have been working (mostly not working on) the AA version for months...
Seems to always take a back seat to something new or one of the group builds...
Did you have as many problems as I'm having??? I think the sequence of building
it is all jacked up (because most of the small exterior detail that they had
me put on early, has been broken off and either destroyed or fed to the carpet
monster that is always eager to help me out)...
I'm glad to see that you finished yours and that is came out so well.

yup, I read the PMMS review and totally agreed that the idea of putting all the fine detail on BEFORE putting the hull together was insane. No real problems other than the fit of the hull top plate and the engine decks..............oh and the slight problem I had with glueing the wrong wheel halves together......James came to the rescue with a spare set of wheels thank goodness........
 
Hi there.

A nice build. It is amazing just how dusty an armoured vehicle can get in just a short time in use. This is even more so if the vehicle is not the first in line when traveling a dirt road.

Was there any big reason that caused you to replace the kit wheels?

Did the kit come with any radios for the Staghound? If so, which one or ones?

Cheers from Peter
 
Yeah, the reason was, I glued the front INNER halves to the back OUTER halves and vice versa six months ago and only discovered my booboo when it came time to put them on the model (the front wheels have a kind of ball socket mounting which the rear ones don't and as the hubs for front and rear wheels differ I was, as you might say, screwed. Luckily James came to the rescue with a spare set of Bronco wheels)

If I recall correctly, the kit comes with a No19 set complete with etched wire guards.
 
Very nice, good job.
Very beautiful paint job.

I just finished my in 1/48 scale and posted it at Missing-Lynx

One guy there told me about one mistake at alignment of the muflers.

Pay attention because I think you also aligned it in a wrong way, like me:

I don't know Helder, I think he got it.
 
This is a great looking Stag.

I like the camo scheme.
The roundal at the back stands out on the camo.

Excellent job

Michael :)
