I'm physically (and mentally, obviously) incapable of having only one build on my bench anymore...and I'm a complete Tour De France junkie, which means I sit in front of the TV A LOT every July. So put those two things together, and you have an excess of plastic-gluing time! Here's what I came up with after the last few stages:  This is the 1/32 scale AMT kit - she's a big one! Forgot to lay the ruler down for the pic, but almost a foot long. Strictly OOB (other than drilling out nine gun barrels) this time around...excellent canvas to play with some paint and weathering effects. Unfortunately, my airbrush is NOT in front of the TV, so this won't get any color until after Le Tour ends this weekend. More soon!  |

It's a bigger kit than I though it would be. Looking forward to paint!

Sweet! I saw one of these built up once as a WW2 'what-if' complete with German crosses and three tone scheme. Looking forward to seeing what you do with it once you have post Tour withdrawals. |

I thought I had seen all of the Sky team cars - don't recall that one!
Re: paint - as usual, this is the hangup...trying to decide between the Ep.1 scheme (boxart), the Clone Wars scheme, or one of the "others". I'll try to find links to all of the options.
Side note - I WILL be doing more than one of these (3 or 4, eventually) so they'll all get done at some point. Heh.
