That's very cool, but very tiny. Maybe you can use it as an RC model for one of your 1/16 (or maybe 1/6) figures to be controlling!

Sass!
Thanks for looking in. This is a test to see if standing at the counter time is up to building and painting. Looking good so far.
regards
Painless!

Painless, I bet the HO train folks love that one. If it were 1/48 (O Scale) I’d be all over it like flies on a cow’s behind. Now the important part is that you did it! Here’s to the therapeutic value of modeling!

Good Morning, Herr Dr.
I agree on all points! Some primer and paint today and a last bit of micro detailing should see it finished. Hopefully the Fabric Tan has not dried up. ;0) Vehicles from this time period were pretty much shot top to bottom and front to back with Olive Drab. Grease and dirt seemed to be the only tonality applied.
regards,
Painless

Glad to see you back in action, Painless. I'd been wondering where you were! The Ford looks like a comfy little project to get back in to the swing of things, and is cute as heck to boot! Best wishes for your recovery, you'll be ready for the bigger stuff in no time.

Good Morning!
Thank you, it is good to be modeling again! I should have a finishing update on this little Gem this afternoon. Then. It's time to decide what's next! ;o)
regards,
Painless
