Start me up - finished!

My Hucks Starter Truck is now complete.  Just to prove it 'works' here is the thing in congress with a 1/32-ish Sopwith Camel while a Sergeant of the RFC looks on despairingly.
The starter gear was thrown together from bits of sprue and a couple of odds and ends from the spares box.  I have tried to make it robust enough for game use so accuracy and detail have inevitably suffered.  That said, it couldn't really be anything else, could it?

    Thanks - the colour is a Vallejo blue-grey which seemed appropriate.

    Definitely looks the part Tim, a toy soldier 1920s aerodrome would be a sight to see.

    Cheers,

    A whole aerodrome? You don't want much, do you?

    Actually that's not a bad idea. Shall I pencil you in for a 1/32 scale Gotha? Just kidding....
