Revisited a very old project and put some effort in.

1/56 DUKW
It splits in the middle to convert to waterline

Good start, the split option is a good idea.

This does look rather excellent! Do you intend to add pegs or some other device to lock them together?

That's a lovely scratch build. Sterling work.

Will be going to Die Waffenkammer for casting at some point...

I so much admire the skills of the scratch builder.

That is fantastic - very clever to waterline it in such a concealed way!

ork56 · « **Reply #10 on:** December 11, 2017, 06:35:15 AM »

Cast it with drop outs to take magnets to make the waterline conversion very simple?

Thanks all.

It's got pegs now to align the two halves.

It's also got a winch now. It would have been a lot easier if I'd included it in the original hull build...

Cool. I had a whole fleet of these back in the day, both the bendy plastic Airfix ones and the proper kit ones.

Detail slowly being added
