I think the Hi-lux some of you may have seen. The other was meant for the 'Close Contact' diorama but replaced the pickup with the Merc. Hope you like the pics. Still need to do a little more up here and there but it is practically done. Sorry for the bad quality pics. I am waiting for my new phone to come. My present one, has a scratched glass on the front.

Truly Stunning Charles. They both look incredibly real. And that's as good a compliment any model can receive.

Brilliant work.

Cheers

Wow, that's a really really nice build. Couldn't agree more with others already said.

Thanks everyone. Yes. It is the same. The land rover does not exist any more. So i just used it to display these two. I have a seperate base for them.
