Aha, thats why i was a lil bit confused! Thanks Frank!
The vinyl ones dont look so bad but the others, too! Which one would you choose?

I think i´d go with the vinyltracks. They dont need to get cleaned from ejection pins.

Really a nice kit, Augie. But if I remember in the right way you have to widen all the holes in the wheels with a drill. Fitting will become better...
...and don't use the vinyltracks...😢

Fine results, Augie.
You are the only female modeller I know, who tackles Monstermodels in that skifull manner as you did.

Can I ask what colour green you used? I see you use revell acrylics. How do you find them?
12 July 2013, 07:09

Now that it looks right, all you need to do is add some diesel fuel and dirt to make it smell right. Great job! Gary

Hi Augie - I know the problem with the wheels. Open the holes from the wheels with a drill. Fit and assembling will become much more better. Nice progress so far.
28 July 2013, 09:31
![](/profiles/img/11503-886-s.jpg)
thanks guys
Mike: Mine fit ok, didn't need drilling oddly just the weathering lol

👍 Yes, Augie! Keep it going. The box on the fenders isn't of the Trumpeter kit. Scratch built?
