The HST is finished and ready for weathering which will be on hold until I have finally decided on the base and final look. 


The home made tarp I did for the back box using tissue and PVA was too heavy a texture so I re covered it with very thinly rolled out Green Stuff which I managed to get so thin, I overlaid the tissue tarp and it actually held some of the texture through the Green Stuff.  Never done anything like that before but it worked out really well.  


I have said before but will repeat, this is an absolute gem of a kit.  If you have been humming and ahhing over one or have one in your stash, build it, it really is a delight.


Also realised this might be in the wrong forum.  Should it be under soft skin rather than armour?

Looks great! Nice base for weathering.

That looks great Graham, very nicely done.


Personally I wouldn't term it a soft skin because it's clearly armoured.

Great work getting it this far Graham.
