Miss APRIL

Sneak preview on the earlier thread but I thought I could show Miss April to all here.
The Scammel Sno plough is an interesting member of my collection - an "orphan." Not quite sure how I acquired it - whether it be one of my brothers' or whatever. Never remember having it as a kid. Been in my possession for 30 years or more. Possession, as they say .....
Recently restored by "Surgery 28" boys in Croydon, East Melbourne - where I grew up. Thanks Trevor and Tony. The Scammel was in about 7/10 condition; played with but nearly displayable. I sort of just chucked it in among a swag of restorations, to see how they went. Also I think I had 19 for work plus my Major blue Car transporter so tossing this in made it an even 20 RW.
Come up a treat for a model I previously cared little about. (The Scammel - not the girl).
Bit more editing should see the photo titling all ok - hope I've not infringed any copyrights!
Not sure when I can do Miss MAY as only the lucky Scammel made it offshore - I know why as I write; I didn't care if I lost it! Wasn't going to risk my new yellow Vauxhall Estate. I thought this was the best shot I took - if Miss MAY materialises may well feature 16c again - albeit in a different light.
So if folks have suggested poses, preferred months or models I'll see if I can accommodate. Vanessa is happy to oblige. Must be reward for effort. Bearing in mind her profession, and this being a family friendly website only appropriate suggestions will be countenanced.
Let me know.
Thx
