Beautiful models. The Hispano Suiza must have presented some unique design challenges for you with all those curves at the front.

Thank you Don! But I'm sorry it is not a design of my own.

Thanks for all the encouraging comments!
More on the Hispano, work on the hull nearing its end. A very troublesome joint dealt at least satisfactorily... I'm discarding most of the joining tabs and using internal overlapping auxiliary stripes as shown in one of the pics. Also I glued a pivot for a rotating turret; despite the huge scale of the original model, it builds with a fixed turret . |

Thank you again Don, but only the Benach Tractor is a design of Jesús L. Bea. Maybe I wasn't clear enough in my first post, the Hispano-Suiza is part of a collection of 10 Spanish Civil War published at an unknown date by Estampería Popular Presentación
Unfortunately, this collection is no longer in it's catalog and there wont appear any references of it in the web except for this one: Vehiculos y blindados de la guerra civil española Spanish civil War Armored truck: "Tanques de papel" Last Christmas, I contacted the publisher and, after long e-mail inquire, I managed to have one set of prints retrieved from somewhere - as it appeared that it had been out of print for long - and sent to my eager hands. If anybody wants help to contact this publisher I'll gladly lend a hand. |

And this are today's advances: Caterpillars for the Benach Tractor completed, and it is finished!
Thank you for following! |

It has been spectacular, excellent work, everything very neat, I loved it. And you built a weird model, something that is not seen habitually. Very well done!

Unusual vehicles that's for sure. Thanks for letting us look over your shoulder as you worked.
