WW1 Fuel Cart - Scratch Built
« on: November 06, 2014, 07:13:32 AM »
Hi chaps  :)

I had a bash at replicating Aviattics wee cart, and this is the result. Mainly for the challenge.

Hope you like it.

Regards

Its 1/32 . . . . Adding it to my Roland c11 when I get it finished, or should I say,
Trying to get my dh9 finished and the Roland on the go.  ;)

It was done just for the hell of it really.

That's really nice, Dave. It will certainly add to your planned Dio, and even on it's own it's very impressive!
Cheers,

Superb work, especially the wheels. I dread to think what that would be like to build in God's Own Scale.
