That’s a cracking model. i have just recently got hold of an old Heller kit Scania to do at some time and have heard from different builders about sometimes having to manipulate cab plastics.
Scania is great, I’m building one next winter so will be looking back at the pictures
Model trailer went down well at the show, a lot of interest and positive comments, the reflectors work as well

No one makes any parts to build bigger models so I’ll have to keep my eyes peeled for anything that looks like a small tank etc

Sheets wrapped up and roped on top of the pallets at the front of trailer
Looks better with hubs filled in, used old water bottles cut off and painted
Got trailer number rivetted on as well, numbers not very straight though. : )

Very last show for the tractor as unit will be pulling the trailer next year.
Trailer parked up for the night at the show, might try a better load next year.
Started on my wooden model truck cab, harder than I thought

Lovely job, decent looking mirrors on it and a nice trailer
Beautiful model there! I assume it’s in 1:24. Robert

Yes Robert that’s correct 1:24 scale.
Superb job, Jonny. Decent choice of livery, too.
