Work on building the Airfix Alvis FV622 Stalwart Mk.2 1/35 scale or as I will now refer to it as the Stolly has started. This is the first Airfix 1/35 scale military vehicle that I have built by Airfix so the build will be a learning curve but initial impressions are that this could be an early Tamiya kit. Parts fit well and it is not over complicated but the jit dos lack the finess of say a Dragon or Miniarts kit. However, I like uncomplicated and simple as it reminds me of me!
So far it has been easy going ith the chassis or hull constructed and the cab started on. Unfortubnatly, for a brand new tooling, there is a sink hole mark either side of the cab interior.
Some filler has dealt with these, but not what I expected in a new kit.
Moving on, the cab interior is mostly done and I have left the seats unglued for he moment as that will make painting the cab interior easier. I will have to see how I do that painting before building the cab which the instructions instruct should be built around the chassis/hull or can I find another way?
