Dunno if anyone can make anything of this ...



It's a recolour I did of the FG Burton Vardo a year or two back, along with a re-work into a Bow-Top. I got as far as building both vans, so I know they're plausible, but my damaged fingers couldn't (and still can't) hold a knife properly, so cutting out the wheel spokes defeated me.

They will still be hiding wheel-less in a drawer somewhere, but I can't put a finger on them just yet. Here's a rough job of the FG design though, with a 1960s Concorde that I designed to go with Pete Chandler's 00 scale Fairground Models. Another large diorama that I hope get around to building one day.



Of course if true to scale, the Burton would be much bigger than this.
