Hi Scott,Very, very nice Sir, as said I love the weathering, I've never tried anything armoured as having to try and build the tracks has always put me off, may I ask what these tracks where like please...

Andy...

Hi Andy the tracks are the black rubber type but they are pretty good quality.

Hi Alan yes it is an out of the box build.Scott

Great I'm going to get myself one , I can see a Stalingrad dio coming to mind

Hi Dave I use the revell aqua thinner that has something in it that makes the paint stay wet for longer, just add a few drops to get a milky consistency and it goes on as smooth as butter.Scott

No problems with that bit Scott, but how do you transfer the paint from the blue pot to your A/B? It's beautiful the first time you use that particular paint but ...

When you stir the paint to mix it, some always ends up near the top of the pot and dries on the sides (See pic).

Next time you stir the paint to use it, you get bits of this dried paint falling off into your paint. It's these bits that clog the A/B.

Hi dave give the paint a good shake then stir when you open it, i dont mix it in the pot i spoon a little out into another clean jar with a small plastic spoon, then add some of the thinner.... just a few drops usually does the trick, then pour into the air brush and spray.
