Cheers Scottie.. that's the easy bit!!
Thanks Andrew,not much seepage for a change
Thank you Nick,much appreciated
.
.. well I hope this update is more successful than the previous with images..
.. it may not look much,but this undercarriage stuff is VERY thin/fiddly,and takes an age to get together,done one,made mistakes, hopefully the second will be flawless?!!
....
... Certainly mistakes on that one, but I've tried to make good,this lot...
Will come out ok straight away?!!
If you suspect that I'm tackling this build in a kind of haphazard way, there's a good reason for it....

Indeed it is John...
.. it's quite a tricky assembly
Great to hear from you mate,
Love to yourself and Christine, from all of us down ere in Devon
Ok then my fellow little plastic warriors ...
... After much a gnashing of teeth, screaming blue murder,and general pleas to the modelling gods,....
... I've managed to get the undercarriage assembled and weathered, whilst also making serious inroads to the two motors,(which,btw,look to be equally fiddly!!)....
The motors with just early paint/wash awaiting the MANY tiny pipework bits!!....
... And the incredibly fiddly landing gear put together,painted,and a bit weathered.Finally, the underneath...
Early days here,but had to make a start due to the wheel assemblies nearly done!!
It's coming along now, been a bit taxing in places I have to admit, but we're on the way now!!
Thanks for looking in as always,more to come tomorrow evening I hope
Cheers for now
Andy

Nicely done mate.
After what seems like AGES doing stuff and getting next to nowhere on this kit, I've actually made some progress!!Well, bloody hell
....
...those tiny pipes won't be seen,shall I persevere?!!... Probably not!!
I got fed up with the undercarriage as well, very vague instructions..
So I just shoved them in !!....
... can't mess around too much eh?!!
....next up....
There tis at moment, feel free to abuse!!

Smiffy,
Those engines and undercarriage look the nuts.
