Loving this, that rear section looks very realistic Mark . Certainly takes me back .
Cheers John, hmm I have a British driver,you've given me an idea :smiling:
Have got the cab painted and a gloss coat,I will fit the cab to the chassis when all paint and weathering is complete, front mudguards and bits and bobs are in colour, need gloss coat . Just radiator and the bonnet left to paint but....I ran out of paint:tired: another order up needed and as usual I will end up buying much more than just paint! !
And I managed to drill out the exhaust pipe without messing it up:smiling6:

Cheers Jim, getting there.
So I've got a bit more done, paint arrived so the bonnet and all the bits are painted now, done a wash on the cab, still playing with acrylic washes which do dry very quickly but I have discovered that by diluting some decal fix with water to dampen a cotton bud for clean up I can pretty much use same process as using enamel washes but without the smell or sticky mess I seem to end up with.most of the decals are in place, didn't want to slide off the backing very easy, had to lift them off with a scalpel blade .exhaust fitted, some etch tool clamps on the back, even managed two out of three wingnuts :smiling: once it's all together there's some weather to do, probably a dry mud if I can manage it.
Coming on very nicely indeed Mark.
Very well done.
Andrew
Very well done.

Coming along very well Mark. Great build on an iconic vehicle :thumb2:
Thanks guys.
I like the look of this a lot. The paint and patina look bang on.
Thanks Colin, still a novice at this wash and weathering lark, think I'm getting a little better at each try.

This is stunning Mark :thumb2::thumb2::thumb2::thumb2::thumb2:
