British FV107 Scimitar MK1 CVRT
Hi,
Thought i would post some pics of my latest Fabricobble, a bit reticent about posting as its not a high dollar build but a model under construction made from old unused parts, scrap, junk, old toys, spit, bubble gum and baling wire and anything else i could find, lots of styrene sheet, 11 ba nuts, bolts, brass, aluminium mesh lots of scratch made stuff and a bit of ingenuity thrown in, so if you could bare it in mind.
A couple of pics.
I will update with more pics if there is any interest.
Regards.

My spit, bubblegum, and baling wire does NOT look like that!
