A lovely model from this newish manufacturer and very well cast. I filed the roof down slightly to make it a hardtop, rather than the soft top which the model comes as.

This is the van body version next to a pickup version I painted earlier. The van body is nicely detailed but has a noticeable mold line running through the middle which is annoying and hard to remove.

A very cool bus model with crisp detail and can be brough with the trailer below, or separately. This was a joy to paint up.

When I saw the bus and trailer from Armstrong Models I though that the trailer would be useful on its own. I chopped off the trailer arm and added a radiator and bumper made from plasticard and a small piece of sandpaper. I think I could do better on the next one, but I happy how it came out and I like the paint job. Or if your feeling lazy you could j ust chop off the trailer arm and it will still look good.

A huge truck model from Scotia. A good casting of this massive truck. I painted it as a furniture removal truck but I need to add a logo to the side.

I used a Navwar Foden as the basis for this conversion I like the Foden because it doesn't look too military truck IMHO. The rear was made from plasticard and the wheels from green stuff. Another truck for the IKEA fleet!

Another conversion of the Navwar Foden. It meant to be an 18 wheeler but the back wheels are only singles and are a bit crooked. I think I'll replace the wheels but otherwise I'm pleased with the model. The trailer and the rest of the tractor were made from Plasticard offcuts and the fuel tanks are cut from round plastcard strips.

I have a couple of modern 6mm Scandanvian armies (Swedish and Finnish) so I decided to paint up a fleet of IKEA trucks for my games. Check out the terrain section for an IKEA shop coming some!
