Hi
Long time coming this update.
life is being a pain
Slowly getting this finished.
Interior started
Roof on, slowly taking shape.
Had a base coat of OD then some chipping fluid was applied before pale blue/grey was applied & then chipped.
Decals applied & then most scratches applied this time with OD 7 the Pale Blue Grey
Light dusting of a pale Sand colour
Still a bit to do to finish this, then a small base to make.

Hi Rob
It's very Nice to get some building done
.
I've been keeping an eye on what people have been doing, just not much of My own.
Mum's the main reason been to busy to build.
She's had a second stroke & with visiting 2 -3 times the care home a week , what spare time I do have just disappears
She's settled in now so hopefully will be able to get some sort of routine sorted.
Thanks for asking.
Been some great builds going on here lately.

Sorry to hear that Shaun. It's a dreadful condition. Know what you mean by time, but for me at least - Modelling is a Great Escape.
And with so little time you've still made a Great job on the Ambulance

Bad news about your mum Shaun, I hope she is comfortable and things are improving, try to rest as much as possible, keep the stress levels down.
As to the ambulance, love it! I have a soft spot for this one and did build one years ago. Should try picking up another!
