| I have seen a pic with a cut open toad 1 and there is an unpainted seat inside....Is that a conversion, or is there one in there? |

Just cut it open with a sharp modelling knife! Its quite easy but try doing several cuts with medium pressure rather than trying to get through in one cut. It is a nice interior with details on the "hatch" as well. I dont know about the winter cammo version but the older ones has it. Its the same for the Wraith Golgoth too, although it is not a seat but rather an orange brainlike thingy.
EDIT:
Just realized that I have some picures uploaded of an old work in progress, long way from finnished but you get the idea of it:

Important tip: the front hatch hinges at the front, and the back hatch at the rear

Thx for pointing this thread out. I'm bumping it so I can bookmark it @ home.
Are the Hatches glued all the way around or only on top and bottom? |
