M1240 A1 MRAP. Ryefield models 1/48 scale plastic model kit- doors!

I built a Bradley M2A2 for my step son who served in one in Iraq. His friend was a marine in the same part of the world. He said he’d love an MRAP which he rode in and drove in combat. I looked up a kit and the complexity of it scares the hell outta me. Watching this intently. Thanks! You have such steady hands.

@@scottyshipbuilder Dear Scotty, I’d bet that you could complete this really well! I believe that there is a 1:35 version too, so maybe that’s a possibility? Thanks for writing- it’s good to hear about your projects. I sure your step son liked his Bradley. Regards, Z

@@paulysworkbench Dear Paul, Thanks very much- jolly kind of you! I really should plonk this into a diorama eh? Something with sand! Regards, Z

@@OzzysScaleModelerSecret Hey there Mr Ozzy!! Good to hear from you! It’s like most of these Ryefield kits- pretty straightforward really notwithstanding the diagrams which require one to look carefully at them! How’s it with you? Regards, Z

You should add johnson to your list of swear words... or not. In your typical usage, my internal Queen's English to American English translator hears it as 'prick', which honestly just adds to the fun of watching/listening to your videos. 👍

@@tamedragon66 Dear Mr Dragon, I may yet do as you ask!! Must remember to do so! Thanks!! Z

Dear Zin, I was curious as to what you used as the primer coat on the undercarriage / chassis. Just so you know, I take no offense at all at being called a "poor deranged fellow" - I have certainly been called much worse, and those whom I consider as friends get a free pass 🙂 Keep up the great work on the model bench and in documenting your activities on the cricket pitch.

@@tronmcconnell4465 Dear Tron, I am, as ever, in your debt! These narratives are unscripted and therefore my words simply come as they occur to me. I suspect that if I thought too much, then it would sound stilted and I didn’t want that. It delights me that you and do many others listen in to my burbling… Btw, it’s Mr Surfacer 1,500 cut with Mr Colour levelling thinner. Works very nicely!! Regards, Z
