Ooooh yes young man......I do I can feel it my water

No fluids before bedtime!

Nice little project here for sure, looking forward to seeing them come to life.

[djg261971]

Right so one body shell done.

[djg261971]

I've started on the interior. And painted the inside of the door panels.



And floor pans.

[Leon]

Off and running Darren.Like all the extra goodies for these.

[djg261971]

Thank you Leon. The progress so far.

And one pick-up is progressing nicely.





Now to bring the other one up to the same stage.

[deafpanzer]

You are making nice process on them... looking forward to more.

[djg261971]

Thank you! More progress on the pick-ups. And they're both at the same stage more or less.

[djg261971]

A bit more progress, and just sorting the interiors.





I have a question. Re:the driver figure. Being a PMC would he wear civvy style clothes under his chest armour?

[deafpanzer]

They are starting to look like pick up trucks now. Often I see them on TV wearing military cargo pants along with military style shirts but not in camo... in plain colors.

[djg261971]

Ok thank you Dicky and Todd. Once I've the figure done, I can get more stowage added and then close em up.

[Leon]

Looking really good Darren.

[djg261971]

I've managed to get the glazing into the body shells. And added the plates for the roll bars.

[wbill76]

Nice work on the bodies Darren, even in 1/35 these aren't very large!

[djg261971]

Thank you Bill. And no they're not that big.

Something I've been working on over the last few evening is stowage for the Terrorist's/Militia Pick-Up. And a couple of the items are now finished. And they are sports bags, which will sit in the Pick-up interior.



They just need a Matt coat, and they're good to go.

[wbill76]

Nice touch with the gym bags. Even militia guys have to get their exercise!

[Leon]

Looking good Darren,the sport bags are nice touch.

[djg261971]

Thank you Leon, Bill and Dicky. The body shell's will be dusted up once I've got them all buttoned up. I'm looking forward to that

[djg261971]

Right so started working on the stowage for the truck bed. It's all a little rough at the moment. And I'm adding little bits of colour here and there.

[wbill76]

Good start to the color blocking Darren, lots of gear in that pile for the bed.

[Deleted]

How do you do that??

[djg261971]

Thank you Bill. And how'd I do what? The resin comes as one big block, you just have to paint it to bring out the detail.

And a few more items for the Terrorists truck.

[djg261971]

Today's work on the PMC's Pick-up. And the resin stowage is nearly done. Just trying to decide on a colour for the unpainted cloth/tarp. Also got the driver figure installed and also a CAR-15 on the offside seat. This will soon be ready for closing up, but going to add a couple of drinking water bottles to add life.

[Leon]

Nice work on the stowage and driver Darren.Making good progress.

[djg261971]

Thank you Leon.

Right the interior is all done on the PMC truck. There are three variants of the M16 in there along with go bags, water can and a water bottle.

[deafpanzer]

Good work on the interior especially the water bottle!

[djg261971]

Thank you. Well had a set back it seems the interior won't fit well with the figure in place so I've left him out. And will use it on something else.

[djg261971]

So they're starting to look like pick-ups now.
