To look at it now, one would never know you had a problem with it. This is very, very well done.

I'm calling this one finished and some may say about time too. :D Despite all the trials and tribulations that occurred throughout the build, I have to say this turned out better than I ever thought it would. For the base, I first used various dried herbs to create a forest floor look. While it smelled nice it looked rubbish. So I bit the bullet and bought a swag of items like leaves, grass, scatter, and assorted groundcovers. The result was much better and more like what I had in mind.

I might try painting a figure before the GB starts but if it doesn't work out at least the Scout Car and base are done. ;)
Thanks for putting up with me on this build.
See you at the bench next time. :)
Cheers,
Vincent

Excellent work :D The base is simply perfect, lightyears ahead of that piece of rubbish I put under my BA-10 :lol:
