I should take a pic and post it and the whole story on the internet. It worked for the electric supplier when their transformer started leaking onto my trash cans. They fixed that quick.

I found a copy on ebutt.

I’m going to have to find a way to build this now. First idea is to start with an F-104.

Your Bristol Watchman needs an upgrade to Turbo Watchman.

Replacement R-R Darts would work - probably placing the propeller discs forward of the windscreen.

I can't speak to which paint would be best for the bang seats. But, if those spots really are within the clear plastic, surely, Italeri must replace their flawed part!

(Its been aeons since I've had a replacement part from makers but, back then in Palaeocene, I also had great responses from manufacturers. (Airfix was the best. On two occasions, they replaced flawed parts while including whole kits for free!)

Excellent build and backstory, Frank  :smiley:

And good point on minimal weathering. This thing would get regular, thorough scrub-downs by guys in Noddie suits  :o

Looking great! I had meant to ask: where are the large drive sprockets originally from?

Yes! Snow splotches will be essential for anything DEW Line related  :smiley:

... Notice the flag, this is the flag pre 1707 it has no Cross of St Patrick ... Or do they know something we don't ...

I think we're going to have to hear back from Claymore for details on the ground  :o

I'm done with this one. I did only minimal weathering and shading since you don't want a vehicle like this tracking who knows what back to base...

Driving down a country road to some horrible disaster:





Drone views:





For background, this vehicle falls under the jurisdiction of the SCP Foundation. Note that the following SCP events are viewable only by those with proper security clearance.

The vehicle is possibly being used as part of ongoing research related to SCP-4008. Some suggest that it may be in use as part of the search and containment of another organism like the one in SCP-183. Others speculate that it may be related to an ongoing and as yet unrecorded SCP event that precludes close-in human examination.

Slowly getting there, tracks going on & some contrasting colour trim to do.
Weathering will need some thought --- hope I can do splotches of snow without over / under doing it.
