I finally finished this, it's been a bit of a beast. I have to say though that it has been an absolute pleasure to build and I've enjoyed every bit....well all except one bit and that was the hinges for the engine deck plates. i've spent about 4 days trying to get something to work and although I'm not entirely happy with my efforts I can't really complain. I eventually used small pieces cut from a Q-tip shaft to make the requisite hinge parts along with some florist wire and it seems to work. I didn't want to have the doors shut and hide the engine but also I didn't want the doors permanently open. The turret handholds are florist wire also as are the two aerials and the markings are simply printed on 80gsm paper and cut out. The packet of dhurries is just to give some idea of the scale. I've already started on Dave's 1/16th Field Artillery Tractor with Limber and 25 Pounder field gun, don't know how long it will take to finish....this one took a fair while. Please excuse the crappy photography. Bones
