A deviation from the inmstructions!

Now, I have in the past in this blog highlighted the pitfalls of not following the manufactures instructions to build their kit or indeed Mrs. Woody's instructions on tasks that she has lined up for me to do. In fact I have created problems for myself by doing the exact thing both with kits and Mrs. W! However, in this instance I am sure I can deviate from the Airfix instructions without issue but not so sure about Mrs. W! However, I will deal with the latter issue later. In the meantime, I have found out that it is possible to build the Stolly's cab separately to the chassis/hull and for it to still be able to be fitted into place. The significance of this is that I can paint the inside of the cab at any stage I like without having the worry of having to do it through the cab windows. Much easier!

With cab temporarily in place it already looks like a Stolly!

Right, better get some plant watering done as Mrs. Woody has instructed - always best to follow instructions, or is it???
