Thanks Andy. I take my time. I won't add more detail to the engine as it will be invisible after the build. I like to start painting soon and focus on the exterior. After this one I have a Studebaker truck coming up.

Rob, I HATE bathroom remodeling, particularly when I'm in the middle of a fun build like this one. The coming days there will be more bench time ! Hindhound, thanks, I think my idea for the diorama can be interesting if executed well. Deano, this topic will be very much alive the coming time. Leon, the chassis has very nice detail. Bill, the bathroom is practically done now...I feel so happy ! T, I'm glad to join the troops here again. The supports of the mud guards were made of Evergreen rod. I also carved a wood structure in the planks.  More to come soon fellas ! Best regards ! AG. |

Oh, oh, how I wish I won the poll for the campaign in an italian forum... I wanted that kit and instead it won ***censored*** (it's a surprise).
I love the progress, can't wait to see more.

that little jewel should be on a base, sitting by itself without the chassis, looking very sorry for itself.
just add the roof and open the doors, some broken glass, weeds growing on it, plenty of green moss etc etc.
just sayin'

Bill, I will make a base for it, with the chassis and looking sorry for itself LOL. Doors will remain closed (I was lazy). Broken glass check, weeds check, moss check... Bill, the roof will be glued on but I'll do the best I can to make a nice looking rusty roof. Marcel, thanks buddy ! Tony, thanks, I've done more today. Driver's door ready for more pigments, washes...  Roof was sanded after multiple layers of pigments and paint were added.  Best regards ! AG. |

Thanks my good fellas ! The doors were finished with extra pigments and washes, and very fine rust spots were added with oil paint burnt umber/burnt sienna by sponge.   My materials (note the old ones, I LOVE THEM !)  Best regards ! AG. |

LOL! Still using MIG pigments... they will never go bad as long as you keep them dry. You didn't use hairspray technique this time? just sponge only?!?!?
I am in awe by just looking at your work...

Nice progress on the chassis Guy.
