Ice Cold in Alex “Katy”

The kit arrives from Airfix with a set of Humbrol droppers. This will be my first experience of these paints. 

There are four decal options on the sheet, and they are not all be boring green. From the box you can build one of the following:
1. 30 Corps, Motor Ambulance Convoy, Royal Army Service Corps, North West Europe, 1944
2. British Army, North Africa, 1940
3. British Army, Alexandria, Egypt, 1942 (Not the one from Ice Cold in Alex)
4. Auxiliary Territorial Service, England, 1944 Driven by Princess Elizabeth 

I was so happy to find in the decals and totally undocumented, the correct white lettering for Katy!, So there are actually 5 options! 

Having already built 1 & 4, I'm going to be finishing this, my third Airfix Ambulance, with inspiration from the film of the book, Ice Cold in Alex.  

First bit of weathering in the interior wooden floor. 

Interior built and linen paint applied over khaki green. I've also painted up some figures; not sure how I'll use them yet though. 

Phew! the roof Red Cross decal is probably one of the most tricky of all decals I've ever had to apply. 

Katy is starting to look her grubby state after a generous application of flory grime wash
