I find the supplied instrument panel to flat. Tried the Yahoo IP and found this also to flat and way to small. A little scratchbuilding created much more depth.
Here you can show of a lot of interesting details. The fittings for the hose joints and the pressure lines are from Top-Studio. I detailed the (5th wheel?) with Master Club nuts and bolts.
The Thunder Model etchings are very thin and flimsy. It's a chore working with them.
I preferred to make new racks with Evergreen styreen. A bit sturdier and good definition.
All it takes is some stock styreen for a pair of mudflaps, license plate and taillight.
I also ordered Set A153 (Tank transporter Strainer & Shackle set WW2/post war) from Accurate Armour.
And then I totally forgot to take pictures of the painting proces. I think it came out rather nice but a tat to dark. Well, it just has to be like this.
It was a lot of work but I managed to angle the front terrain wheels. And it needs a flat coat. But....where did I leave the tracks??

Album info
The intention is to depict a scene somewhere in the East Midlands (have to decide a bit more precise where exactly) where a Scammell is salvage a Matilda tank with bad luck.
