Paul Palmer Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 going to convert,well not really a conversion,i will say change the britains trailer to a mf 200 trailer with the right decals,ive took off the decal that is wrong,i tried to remove the metal lip around the decal,but messed up one body,luckily i had another body spare,the decals will be made by mandy,she doesnt know yet and they will be as the picture,it doesnt look very red in the spraying pictures,its just where i took the photo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Ferguson Posted July 17, 2011 Share Posted July 17, 2011 Looking good Paul... the 760 looks much improved as well I must say.... How about a silver cabbed version as well perhaps Trailer looks good too.. it's a pity you can't get rid of the decal surround.. what about covering the sides in a new layer of thin plasticard and remaking the ribs for yourself ... just a thought.. and bear in mind I have two right hands, in boxing gloves when it comes to model making myself.... and I'm left handed :D Keep up the good work mate and thanks for sharing the pictures - top job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
