Can this help??? you print it on a decal sheet...and there you go ;-) :-)

Or just print it out at the right size on regular paper, then cut out and glue to the kit part.

Extra Christmas card for you this year Greg!! Top man. Many thanks

Paul. The etch work and high end details you are doing are bringing this build alive. Great work

Blimey mate, I don't check in for a few days and you go and do this. Stunning as always. :thumb2:

What's this Scottie...everything but the fire extiguisher decals, this will not do :tears-of-joy: :tears-of-joy: Brilliant work by I mean the blings...the rest is just easy peezy for you. As Allen says you wear that extra tank of patience. In situ or off it's still a pain to paint storage.

Looking forward to the wet stuff.

Cheers,
Richard

Richard, My humble apologies for failing on the decals. But your right about the stowage.

Jakko my printer is not that good so would loose any details.

Not much done today. But I have replaced the width indicators with brass tube and wire I think they look a little better not sure how long they will survive for when fitted.


I started on the basic construction of the turret as well, I will post some pictures later.

Thanks for looking

Thanks Steve, just hope its strong enough so I don't knock it off.

The turret is now done the smoke dischargers were very fiddley I made a few mistakes as the instructions are none to clever so you will notice it's a mixture of etch, kit parts and scratch. I decided to show one bank empty and the other loaded.

This will all dry now for a few days till the next stage.





Thanks for looking

Nice bit of scratchy/etchy work there Scottie. You must be getting close to smearing on some wet stuff. Cheers, Rick H.

Steve, Thanks mate I am reasonable happy there are places where I could nave done it better but every build is a learning experience.

More fine work that man.

Peter, Thanks mate.

Couldn't resist fitting the turret and wheels just to see how it looked. I have managed to turn the stub axles a little just to give the wheels a touch of turn for interest. The wheels are resin and nicely detailed, they are just blue tacked on at the moment so look a bit wonky.






Normally I don't prime my builds but given the amount of brass on this I thought it prudent so gave it a coat of mr surfacer 1500.



cheers Scottie
