Revamped Di-casts

Re-vamped di-casts

Getting back into a routine as the weather has improved somewhat, I`ve actually been painting and modelling out on the terrace in the sunshine the last few afternoons   

Some of you may recall I picked a some of those Deagostini di-casts cheaply at a flea market before Christmas, here is the latest work:

They started out like this:


The Chevy got a repaint and lots of added stowage




The CMP, gun and limber just a re-paint 


Here are both vehicles along with a Ford G8 I did last year so you can see the colour match - I`m happy with that

Playing with the camera in the garden (again)

The two patrol trucks with Transjordan Frontier force


The CMP, gun and limber with a mixed crew of Raventhorpe and Britannia gunners

  1. Nice revamping. These altaya models are easy to repaint as they have plenty of detail and little is lost with a second coat of paint.

  3. I have a terrace, but if I painted anything sitting out on it at the moment, I'd get frostbite :(

    1. Cheers Pete, they are nice models and only needed a little effort to bring them up to scratch :)
