Here you are my next project:  I hope to start it in the next few days. I will experiment rust, whitewash and some new mud technique on it. It should be fun, at least for me  |

Thanks guys I'm thinking about an extension of the bench, as it is way too small for most projects. |

Just for a start, that's a stunning kit. It comes with a full PE set, engine, interior details, tarpaulin on or off, fully workable tracks, crisp and minimal detail. And that's OOB... And I will test for you the new scrappable whitewash I got from True Earth |

Thanks for the pic, it's really welcome It's nice to see how the rust streaks flow on the wooden cabin. But I'm not going to do it that way |

This should be fun Luigi, I'll be following along ...not only to see you work your magic but to see if MrT can nag you into adding just a few extra rust streaks ;D |

LOL....not yet you say!!! Let's say that I've already seen how much it costs a T-70 And that's an answer, I think... Steve, it'll be a test for rusting and streaking, so it's nearly impossible to make me want to add more And I'm sure I'll need all the help I can get, I'm heading towards unknown territories And that's what makes this build so fun. |

Build it the way you want Luigi!!! There will be plenty of time to break something ;D No worries on the help end of things....plenty of us here to lend a hand where we can!!! Any junk, old, half built kits lying around in that Luigi Cave? Perfect place to start down the road to destruction!!! |

Looking forward to seeing this one. It looks great in the old films of dozens of them in their parade.

Thanks guy, it's great to have so much support I started assembling the engine. I'll try to post some pics later. The engine is a kit in itself, 36 pieces including photoetch. It's a well known GMC 4-71 diesel, so I found a lot of reference pics, unfortunately none of it installed on the YA in colour. |

First pictures of the ongoing work:   I'll have to wait for the tamiya glue to fully cure before going on, as I have to sand and fill some imperfections on the transmission case. |

Always have to start somewhere so why not with the engine? Off to a good start Luigi. |
