Things are moving on at Woody Builders Merchants.

The builders are back tomorrow! Not fully recovered from flu but good enough to get the footings concreted which is good by me. Turns that point of destruction to construction. And they have plenty of material to construct with as all this lot arrived today making WMD HQ look more like a builders merchants! Never mind! As I was once told, you can't make an omelet without breaking eggs! So WMD HQ will look chaotic for some time yet although there will be no omelets to eat unless of course Mrs. Woody decides otherwise! 

 Back in the sanity of my old man cave some more work was undertaken on the Airfix Dodge 1 1/2 Ton Personnel Carrier. This is never going to be a great model. It has major faults, many of the parts are warped leading to a leaning body and as I found out yesterday the previously installed (done by the first modeller butcher) are the wrong way round which explains a lot! However, look from about six feet away and it does not look too bad and is the best I can do without this becoming a major project. Well that is what I tell myself. The underside is finished and given the axle issue will never see the light of day again so I will glue it to a base! Topside there are a few more parts to fit but the cab and cargo bed are now glued to the chassis as well as the gun and its mount being completed.

This would be an excellent vehicle for raiding a builders merchants with all that carrying capacity!
