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?

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

Cheers,

Pete.

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

Tim Gow said...

Thanks - something a little different. Even for me!

To be fair Tim I was thinking more of a group project type of thing....

Cheers,

Pete.

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