Ian, stand away and put that ab down that camo looks great, nice soft edge, much prefer to mine that I did, it was too hard.
Wooden sides thickness looks spot on, some nice details in the driving pit .

I agree, camo is cool. Radio comms were important as they were in great demand & ended up far flung. PaulE

Cheers chaps. I will find a suitable cats whisker, failing that I might have a guitar string somewhere I can snip a bit off and make an antenna from.
Only thing the airbrush will be used for now on this is for spraying pigment for mud and muck. So no worries there Sir.
Off to have a hunt for jerrycans and oil drums and other clutter for the deck. And try to find and fix the chains on the fold down sides!
But first lunch.

Coming along very nicely :thumb2:.

Yes can't work on empty .:smiling3: Loads of clutter, we carried everything in the back of our Scammell, could never find anything :surprised:

Looking great Ian,
I saw this kit at a recent model show and was very tempted to buy it, you are doing a fantastic job of bringing this baby to life.... keep it coming

[Ian M]

Right then:
The mud has started to fly.







Dont worry about the 'cargo' still working on that.
just need to let this dry 100% then a bit of flat varnish to lock it in.

Don’t know how I missed this one Ian, looking good.

Hi Ian
This is looking better and better.

The mud, Right, I knew something was missing! Excellent, just enough to make it look like the work horse it is.
Cheers, Rick H.
