Westwind Hearse with NEW wheels!!!!
« on: October 24, 2011, 06:22:59 PM »
I decided to go for the Westwind Hearse but replaced the chunky wheels with some from Langley models.
I don't think it came out too bad.

Really nice - horses are beautiful, and the driver is really well done. His face is full of character. Great stuff.

I have always thought that too since seeing the film and owning the model.

PM has done another splendid job, up to his usual excellent standard. ;D

As I was just today telling a friend who said he didn't think he could match the piccies I'd just shown him...

"You do excellently fine work. No, really. But PM and Matt are crazy good. NEVER
try to match quality, or insane visions. ;->=

You'll only hurt yourself..."

Case in point. The lad's work is good. Yours is scary.

Very nice. Can I ask you how you went about gluing all those leaves? Is it just a case of a lot of patience..?
