Bob - I'm chuffed you think the finish looks sprayed on. A very kind compliment. Thank you.

Ian - I don't know about that, you should have heard the language when I half painted a 'panel' in the wrong colour!

Gavin - Cheers, glad to see you're still hanging on in there.

Thanks boys,
Ron

Tracks, lights etc. all fitted. So, apart from the M.G, searchlight and add-ons, the tank is, at last, ready for final painting.

Think of me fellow modellers, as I figure out what colour to paint - and where......!

That looks really good Ron. I think you're right it would be very difficult to airbrush such a complicated pattern.

Awesome!

Thanks for that Patrick. It's difficult enough with a b****y brush.....!

Thanks Gavin...

Thanks for the compliments, Dave and Jim.

I've now completed the tank. The thread for the finished model is over in 'Completed'.

Thanks for all your support and encouragement during the build.

Cheers,
Ron
