mr.grumpy Posted March 18, 2013 Posted March 18, 2013 So here goes, this is how far I've got. Not built anything for over 20 years. Got married to my wife in Malvern (England), that's where these threewheelers are still built, which is why I went for this kit. I also like the fact that details like the frame and engine etc will be on display. Also there's not many decals for me to mess up. I'm going for a not so glossy look, an aged instead of a weathered look. Constructive comments welcomed, but I appreciate those kind of comments probably aren't likely considering my lack of skill. That said any defects are down to the lack of my skills and obviously not down to the quality of this kit or the tools used.
mr.grumpy Posted March 18, 2013 Author Posted March 18, 2013 Not sure if thos pics worked, attached as thumbnails this time.
GeeBee Posted March 18, 2013 Posted March 18, 2013 (edited) Looking good, I'd love to see a 1/24th version of the Morgan 3 wheelers, I went to the factory back in the mid 80's, fascinating place to visit, and things haven't changed that much today, there still glueing and screwing bits of wood together .....

mr.grumpy Posted March 18, 2013 Author Posted March 18, 2013 Thanks for your comment, there's not many three wheeler kits around. I've seen a white metal kit I think in 1/24 but I wouldn't know where to start with one of those.
thinkbig Posted March 21, 2013 Posted March 21, 2013 Hi Mr. Grumpy, will follow this one close, because I have got the Threewheeler in my head for some time, to make it my first scratch-build model in 1/8th scale. Got hooked up in 1/8 and thought, the Mog might be the right project to start an almost self-built model, after kitting the R/M and Pochers together. Wishing you good progress and success on this one. Cheers Michael

thinkbig Posted March 26, 2013 Posted March 26, 2013 hello Mr. Grumpy, that'd be a great help. I appreciate that very much. Thank you in advance. Cheers Michael
mr.grumpy Posted March 27, 2013 Author Posted March 27, 2013 The engine is in, what a fiddly job that was but it's in! Wheels are on, all 3 of them
