THUNDER MODELは中国深圳のメーカー。以前に”Cace VAI”を製作したことがある。
THUNDER MODEL is a manufacturer in Shenzhen, China. I have made “Cace VAI” before.
今回製作する”SCAMMELL PIONEER”はトラクター（TRMC30）とトレーラー（TRCU30）のセットキット。
The “SCAMMELL PIONEER” to be produced is a set kit of a tractor (TRMC30) and a trailer (TRCU30).
タミヤのバレンタインMk.Ⅱを載せる予定だが、トレーラだけでもかなり大きく、前がだいぶ高くなるようだ。
This trailer will carry a pre-made TAMIYA’s “VALENTINE MARK.II” tank. However, it is a fairly large trailer and the front is quite high.
ランプダウン状態だと35cmオーバー。見た目は中海の”べた踏み坂”。この後、0.4mmφの真鍮線でワイヤリングしてランプアップ状態にする。
It is over 35 cm when the lamp is down. It looks like “Betafumi-zaka” in Nakaumi, Shimane pref. I plan to wire it with 0.4mmφ brass to make it lamp up.
ほぼ組立完了。不用意につかめないので、筆での塗装は難しそう。
Almost completed assembly. Since the parts are thin, I can’t grasp them carelessly, so painting with a brush seems difficult.
世界遺産の韮山反射炉を見学してきた。代官屋敷の庭に桜と樫と楓の珍しい宿り木があった。静かでいいところ。
I have visited the Nirayama Reverberatory Furnace, which is a World Heritage Site. There was a rare mistletoe of cherry blossoms, oaks and maples in the garden of the daikan’s house. I felt that this area was quiet and nice.
