    I may be 7 hours ahead in GMT but am always late for the party. Great finish as always Steve. Can't help but remember seeing something weathered like this many years ago while researching for my R & R dio...

    And they work perfectly chugging along merrily in the hills of Cameron Highlands...the second most saturation of landrovers outside of the UK. :smiling2:

    Cheers,

        Its been a real pleasure to follow Steve. You have finished with a superb model, it truly looks used and abused with the brilliant weathering.

            Definitely captures the look of an old campaigner. The finish details are awesome, even down to the leaking axle lube. A stunner for sure. PaulE

              The devil is in the detail Paul. I could have done more but wanted to move on. Thanks for the support

                              Very realistic, I like it when pictures look real.

                                I somehow missed this one first time round, I was busy sunning myself in Cyprus at the end of July.

                                Fantastic work Steve, the weathering is very effective and I like the gloss base a lot. Might have to nick that one.
