  1. Disaster Strikes !!!!

    Disaster Strikes !!!!

    This model was sitting on my test track for the last few days. It seems that it got really hot out in the shop and a tube of glue on a shelf above the test track exploded and dripped all over this side of the model. This is not glue like Elmers white glue (I could just peel that off), this...

    The rebuild after the disaster - 4

    MK1200 (LNG) Progress

    I shot a bit of white primer on it tonight just so that I can see where I'm at and what areas need more work. The cab roof looks like it's sloping forward but that's an optical illusion. The side windows still need their window frames installed, they will get all weather windows like the...
