Hi Mark
Top job with that pe. Great build and the pre-shade is very neat and will work a treat I'm sure.

got some colour on now,some details to brush paint, all the little window things can be fitted when painting is complete,then the fun of removing the liquid mask from the lights without pulling them off.

Looking amazing Mark.
I haven't tried the liquid mask yet, is it relatively easy to use, or a steep learning curve?

Thank you :thumb2:
I made a bit of mess first few times I tried using it with a brush but then I tried using a cocktail stick to apply it and had much better success,like anything,bit of practice and it gets easier.

Thanks Mark, I'll give it a go on a small section of my helo build first, just to try.

Just had a catch up with your build and its very impressive, great looking model.

That is a big bugger. Looking very good so far.
I do like a big gun and there is a lot to like about this one!

So managed to get a bit more done,modern tank so trying to keep weathering to a minimum,I done a wash and a bit of streaking,a bit of rust but kept to small chipping in the obvious places it mIght get a bit scraped.just got to do a bit of weathering the tracks and then a matt coat to finish off.

So Mark, it went from the "Beast" to the "Filthy" Beast :tongue-out3: .......weathering looks just right to my eyes, it is after all a fairly new, well maintained vehicle. Is it me or are the projectiles missing from the 12.5's in the link belt? Rick H.
