Cheers Moni, only a few small parts left to fit, then I can get it varnished, decaled and start the weathering.

Impressive kit Bob. Nice work

 

[Mr Bowcat]

Cheers Col.

I really feel my modelling has taken a step forward with this one. I've really learned to slow down and pay attention to small details.

 

[Steve Brodie]

Superb stuff

 

[Mr Bowcat]

I got back from my holidays at the beginning of last week, so this weekend I made a start on the weathering.

Looking good Bob

 

[Mr Bowcat]

Cheers Tommy, I'm hoping to have it finished by the weekend. Just need to give it another coat of matte varnish, followed by a pigment scrub and it should be good to go.

 

[Snowman]

Simply awesome work!!

 

[Mr Bowcat]

Stop it Gavin, you'll make me blush.

 

[Steve Brodie]

Looking very, very nice

 

[Snowman]

Stop it Gavin, you'll make me blush.

Bud, praise where praise is justified. No more than that.

 

[Mr Bowcat]

The end is finally in sight.

Got the lower hull weathered with pigments, and fitted the wheels, tracks & side armour.

I'm going to leave it overnight so the armour is fully stuck on, then tomorrow will be the last stage, the pigment scrub.
