This rust effect is amazing. Reminds me of another project, I have in the near future - a VW beetle (1952).

Bill.....I mean no disrespect to the Boss,or the other fine modellers who do rustification,but in my modest opinion,for what it's worth,you have to be one of the finest exponents of this genre of modelling at any scale!!   |

Hey guys, thanks for taking the trouble to post, makes it all worthwhile slaving over a hot airbrush, I appreciate the comments.
jackwagon mate it,s a minicraft kit which has many guises and has been around for years. Not the best kit in the world and made from plastic that's like bellmetal, hard as hell and no good for thinning and bending like Trumpeter or Tamiya.
You fancy a go? Bit of change maybe?
