- Join me on my new project building the wonderful 1/6 scale 1950's Series 1 Land rover by Armortek.
In this video - Ahead of installing the bulkhead I show you my ideas on how to add detail to the dashboard using basic materials and paints.
Hope you enjoy

I like the "bits and bobs". Really adds to the customization. Make it your own ,my friend.👍
Thanks Eric...I never throw bits out after a build...You never know when they can come in handy. Wow..you really are catching up...I better hurry up and get more videos done😀
No arguments from me Tony, it looks fine. Glad you covered the session; I would probably have been disappointed if on Friday you had presented us with a fait accompli. 👍👍
Thanks Christopher... That is exactly why I did this...glad you enjoyed watching and thank you for your continued support.
Hi Tony, that came out nicely. The paint shrunk the bezels up pretty well. I enjoyed the midweek video. It was a nice start to my day. I'm looking forward to Friday's video. Cheers!
Hi Michael and thank you. I thought so as well....Now that it is complete I am very happy with the look. Now time to get on to the body panels...Catch up at the weekend.
Nice bit of artistic licence taken there, really adds a good amount of detail with what you have lying about.
Thanks Martin...just wanted to elevate it a little, but did not want to start spending a lot of money on it...it is surprising what you can find in the many boxes of bits & bobs lying around. Have a great weekend mate.
Really good to see these bits Tony, I personally like to see as much as possible on your builds, cheers for the extra video.
Thank you...that means a lot...I thought I had spent enough time on the chassis elements...Time to get on to those all important body panels. Next video up this weekend as normal.
For cutting out small printed paper prints . Curved nail trimming scissors.
Thanks Mark...good idea...next time...and on my shopping list.
Great episode, those little details make a good model into a great model. I spend ages putting extras on my 1/16 scale tanks. More like this Tony 👍👍👏
Thanks Aus...I really enjoyed this part of the development...I am so pleased I hang on to the left over bits and bobs...they always come in handy.
@@tonys_workshop me too I have boxes of all sorts of parts and those just in case I might use bits. 👍🤣
Yep...even though it may take years...there is always a use for these things and lets face it they really don't take up that much space...
Hi Tony the dashboard looks great the washers worked well
Thanks Clive, much appreciated.
Tony, get those dials some „glass“ on. Could be done by a drop of clear gloss colour, or a drop of UV glue, hardened with some UV light.
A nice to watch intermezzo! Two more days until Friday!
Thanks Thomas...I will need to test this, as the decals are only thin paper, but good idea. Thanks for your amazing continued support.
tamiya do an acrylic transparent red and orange paint you could put a few drops over the paint to give extra depth and it would look like a lamp on the dashboard
Thank you...I like that idea...I will look into that... Much appreciated.
😎😎Epic work Tony looks very nice.
Thanks Steve, much appreciated.
Nice job Tony, dial bezels a bit over scale but hey, so what it has deafinatley added value to the build, could I suggest that you put a drop of gloss clear coat on the dials and warning lights as when dry it gives the impression of glass,, looking forward to the weekend video. 👌
Thanks Alan...I will defo look into this. I have some acrylic gloss which I could use, but worried as these are only paper supplied by Armortek...I will do some testing, but this could work...Thanks again for your continued support.
A little drop of crystal clear on the dials would give you a good glass effect.
Thanks Terry, I was a little worried as these are only paper, but I will do some testing... Thank you for watching and commenting, much appreciated.
Looks great Tony. Perhaps adding gloss varnish to the dials and lights would really finish it off nicely. Seals in both the dials and gives a glass finish to the lights! Applied with a toothpick, simple to do and self levels perfectly into the recessed dials and lights. Nevertheless fabulous mid week episode, roll on the next instalment. (Test the varnish on scrap parts to get it right)
Thank you. I was was worried as the decals are only paper. I may re-visit...Do you think acrylic gloss? Just didn't want to risk the print lifting on the decals.
@@tonys_workshop yes acrylic gloss would work, the Tamiya gloss would be my suggestion but in fairness they all irrespective of manufacturer are all very good. Dry fast and won’t lift the decals. And Tamiya clear coloured paint are awesome for light clusters. A drop on a toothpick and build up to the level you need, super easy to do and no mess. Same with the gloss use a toothpick and drop it on to the decals until fully coated, levels off to give a glass like appearance. (Years model making lol knew it would come in handy)
👍 Thats great & thank you
That totally threw me, thought it was Friday and id completed 3 shifts ready for the holidays next week 😢😢😢
🤣🤣 Yeh..sorry about that..back to normal this Friday.
