1.50 scale funfair progress.

[ZR1cliff]

here are a couple of shots of the slow progress i am making with the 1.50 scale funfair,ime building the 3rd lorry at this time,the one at the front with the generator on and as you can see i am halfway through making the frame.

The structures on the other trucks and trailer are finished but still need detailing,i normally spend atleast half an hour a day on this and pick at random one item to improve,the upper decking on the middle lorry is made from coffee stirring sticks and will be washed over with a wood colour for a weathering affect,the blue decking leaning against that lorry is an example of how i will build the fair rides(again with coffee stirring sticks),although ime not happy with the scale and will probably reduce this in size.

Nice work Cliff, I like building 1:87 (HO)American trucks, all kits just finishing a typical California flat bed trailer with spaced axles and tool boxes in between, pulled by an LNT with extra details.

Always been a fan of the Circus/Funfair vehicles as a kid I had all the Corgi Circus Vehicles, but my twin sister nicked the horses from the Bedford artic horse box
