A while ago I started what was supposed to be a simple project to build some basic box cargo sections to fit on my Old Crow Provider Transports (here). The construction phase was quick a simple, but the painting...
For some reason the UK seems to be suffering a chronic shortage of olive drab spray paint (at least my part of the world is). In the end I've settled for a light olive that doesn't quite match, so I've done some very rough and ready camo stripes, hoping for a look that gives a bit of an improvised look, as if the trucks have been put together in a bit of a hurry. Hopefully it looks OK.
Of course, just as I complete them, Old Crow go and do this...

Very nice Alan ... very nice indeed.
ReplyDeleteI actually prefer yours to the Old Crow model. The Old Crow one looks more armoured. I suppose what you could do is purchase the Old Crow model, put a guy on top with an AA (or some other) gun ... then you would have a column of transport vehicles with protection.
Another project ... have I just gone and done it again?
Bugger...
