Rolls Royce Tender - WIP
« on: 24 August 2022, 01:59:10 PM »
Rolls Royce WW1 tender for no other reason than the car was cheap in a charity shop. Cribbed the idea off the excellent https://over-open-sights.blogspot.com/2018/08/the-big-push-3.html web site.

Good work and nice charity shop score, I have picked up several Matchbox Models of Yesterday in Op Shops cheap bases for scratch building!

A it rough and ready but it was a very quick turnaround and a fun build. A few bits from the spares box and some simple scratch built extras.

Yes, some crew are planned for, just deciding when to press  send on random list of wants from Empress.

Thanks for your kind words, all.

Found another donor RR in the charity shop so made another. I prefer this one but its massive, about 1 cm longer than the other. Oh well.
