SAS "Pink Panther" Oman
Soon to start the old Tamiya Land Rover with some extra goodies.
Started on the frame. The work is pretty straight forward and fit is good. The spare tyre holder is upgraded..
The AM wheels are a big disapointment. The original Tamiya wheels are better detailed.
Plastic, resin and bling
So far everyting fits very nice.
The truck bed is not yet glued to the frame.
Fiddly work on the stowage.
I soldered the bar at the back of the truck bed. Not very difficult, but it took a couple of tries.
More resin and bling.
I have to admit the smoke launchers were extremly fiddly to put together.
She looks good with a golden mouth
Starting to look like a Landrover
Some more «bling» at the dasboard
I have realised that this will take some time. I corrected the dash board for a few mistakes, added some resin and PE details and made return springs for the clutch and brake pedal. Also well underway with a heavily modified rear GPMG.
Finished the machine guns.
Only ammo belte missing
Some Black primer
Still a long way to go
The pink color is back
The Charlie G is from Black Dog
Got some work done on the SAS Pinkie
Lots of work left
M-72 from Dragon
Finally the Landy is back on the bench. A lot of small bits and pieces ready for paint
Starting to mock up the vehicle. Never mind the paint job it is still at a very early stage.
Still a lot to do with regards to painting
Lot of stowage added
Still room for some more weapons.
Started a base for the Landy
Slowly getting there
…but still a lot of painting to be done.
Been working a bit with the base. After a couple of hours it looks like this.
Slowly getting there. Still some detail painting to do
And some more work to the base as well.
Finished!

Stay away from the aftermarked wheels I have listes in this project. They are not worth the money. The original Tamiya wheels are much better detailed.

Eric I cannibalised the Italeri kit for the suspension and steering and it fitted perfectly to my Tamiya ambulance.

Watching with interest, Erik. Liking the chains on the smoke launcher caps 👍
