    as a side note, I ordered and used some AK Markers for smaller bits and they are fantastic, although a very light shade as opposed to what it says on the tin. For example I got an 'Olive Green' which I'd say comes out as light khaki, and a brown which is more tan. Click image for larger version Name:	IMG_1883.jpg Views:	0 Size:	189.3 KB ID:	1252244
    The progress looks good from where I'm looking Jack.
    Not much into post war stuff but am interested in the camo that you have applied. Haven't used markers as yet still doing the old school hairy stick thingy.

      Got a little bit more done amongst real world activities

      Started on the busted screen, mouldy interior, and rusty bumpers. All need a bit of finessing but I'll get there.

            Good place to start Arn….

            Some very interesting examples here.

                  Mojo has returned somewhat lately. 1/32 Tamiya Phantom. I built this some time ago but needed to rev up to a monumental painting session. Inspired by boatmans excellent build I got on with it. Working through the hundreds of decals.
