Well this is where I'm up too so far
Wheels sprayed hull red ( couldn't resist ) but they will be over sprayed later ( so I can say it's a primer?
All wheels assembled and dry fitted for pics
Rear is all made up ready for primer.
Next I'm going to start on the turret and top quarters ( make as much before I prime the whole beast.

FJust ordered me Some pigments
I know it's not top notch stuff but it's a start and I can practice.
Looked at Mig powders also others but I don't want to dive in deep end and flog the builds with stuff I don't know ( little knowledge)
I have got pastels etc but thought I could try these out on the KT at the latter stage

Well I've finished the main build and while inawait my camo set from John SMS I have decided to spray Nate black on all surfaces
The build has been fun and no problems really found.
Lots of test fitting and all the wheels that need to touch the ground are correct.
The turret internals will be sprayed White after I let the nato black set
The metal barrel is a nice touch IMHO to the kit and thanks to Patrick's advice there I also found the grille set looks spot on too.
I had a wee problem with the air vent covers but got it all good in the end.[ATTACH]279191[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]279188[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]279184[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]279183[/ATTACH]

Looks good Robert, see if you can find a bit of thin wire for the headlamp cable. It makes a nice difference.Comment

You know that was what I am doing as we speak ( I saw a You tube build I think and they used fuse wire from the rear of lamp to back of bracket I think they will make it oober betterComment
