Hi all,

after all the latest events (birth of our first child, the house we bought, my club I closed,...) I had no more time to work on my projects. Now that everything is slowly coming back to normal, motivations come back and I can find some hours to work on.

So, here is the latest progress.

The interior is 99.9% finished. I've painted the thin border around the seats in white (in french we say: 'le passe-poil', I don't know the english word for this). The seats are glued on the chassis.

I must still add a PE road book with reduced maps in it, place the vase on the dashboard and find a very small (real) flower to go in this vase.





I've done the compound stage on the body but I did it too much and went through the paint to the primer. I must now completely sand it and repaint it.

About the chassis of the caravan, I had replaced the bolts done with stretched sprue by PE bolts, a lot more beautiful. I have repainted the frame in black (aluminium looked too 'toyish') and have already done a drybrush with Enamel. I have still another drybrush to do with silver powder. It will highlight the details a little more.




Xav
