daz greenwood Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 (edited) I'm building this for a WW1 Group Build elsewhere. The Model T Ambulance was first employed by the British, who used 19,000 of them, before the US entered the War in 1917. What made the Model T what it was was it ruggedness, reliability and ease of maintenance. By November of 1918, 4, 362 had been deployed overseas. During WW1 Ernest Hemingway and Walt Disney were volunteer Ambulance driver's.

daz greenwood Posted September 12, 2018 Author Share Posted September 12, 2018 Thank you. It was a nice kit until I got to it lol And it's decalling time. I must say I'm pleased with how the decals behaved. No issues at all, they bedded down well after applications of Micro set and Micro Sol once the decals were on. The Ambulance has now had a Matt Coat, and is looking sweet. I'm really enjoying this build.

MikeC Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Looks good, and as Jennings says, plenty of possibilities. If only it was 1:32 not 1:35. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JefH Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 Glad you're building this, I'll definitely follow along. Thinking of picking it up myself. Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimW Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 Very nice. Some awesome diorama potential, here. It's on my "get this!" list. TimW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daz greenwood Posted October 2, 2018 Author Share Posted October 2, 2018 Thank you! I'm out of my comfort zone with this, as I usually build German WW2 vehicles. But a change is a good way of keeping the Mojo going! Today's progress on the Ambulance. I'm nearly done now with only the spare tire and the lights to add.

daz greenwood Posted October 5, 2018 Author Share Posted October 5, 2018 Thank you Tim. The progress so far. And started the base, and as I'm modelling on a budget I've used an old CD case. It's looking very muddy. DSC_3694_12041 by Darren Greenwood, on Flickr Lights painted and the lenses fitted. I've also fitted the horn. The Ambulance is also weathered to tie it in with the base.
