Finally finished the lads. The ladder and pump of the engine is taken from a Marx battery operated fire engine (as I suspect the original was). The body I scratch built.
These are some of my classic faves, Kevin. I must say you've reached new heights with this. Just like stills from the TV series. They're... BRILLIANT! :)
Thanks people, it's kind of you all. The figures are roughly 6inches high and made from wooden artists' mannequins. The body of the engine was mainly plasticard.
Pew, Pew, Barney McGrue, Cuthbert, Dibble and Grub! Fantastic work Kevin, looks like the original!
ReplyDeleteBrilliant.
ReplyDeleteWonderful. I loved these shows when I was little. How big are the models ? What materials were used for the Fire Engine and the figures ?
