Circuswagon

[Billy Leliveld]

This summer me and my family went on a holiday trip,
For a week we rented a circuswagon on a campsite, there where about ten of them, all between 40 and 90 years old.
The Dutch summers can be wet:twisted: (Holland is a nice country, but they should put a roof over it)
But I brought something to keep me bussy

This is the Schreiber model of the Roncalli Circuswagon, build in a circuswagon

 

[Billy Leliveld]

Its not a very complicated model...

 

[Billy Leliveld]

There's only six parts in the main structure

 

[Billy Leliveld]

But it has some nice detail on the wheels..

 

[Billy Leliveld]

I just brought one X-acto knife and a pair of scissors, so it looks a bit rough..

 

[Billy Leliveld]

But here's is the final result..

 

[Billy Leliveld]

We (me and my daughter) because she "pimped" it with the name of the campsite gave the model to the manager, who was very pleased, it's on his desk..
Cheers Billyaussie

Very nice job. Did you buy it at the campsite, or somewhere else? It would be a good item to sell there for a souvenir.

Neat idea - cool.

Thanks Barx2, that was the first thing the owner asked me when I gave him the model, I bought in a shop here in Rotterdam, but it's also available here;http://www.moduni.de/product_info.php/products_id/6072468
Cheers, Billy

Rough? I wish my models looked that rough. Mine look like I built them with my feet compared to yours. Sounds like a great vacation and vacation spot. Cheers!
