Monica has a team of little elves beavering away - either that, or her cats are far more dexterous than normal!

looking good so far.

 

[monica]

ta Scott,so glad your liking it so far,its a little fiddly in some spots after making tanks,

 

[monica]

well the end of the day,been a big long have started the sides of the upper hull,added all bits and bob,s


and painted it,before joining it,as I find it much easier doing it this way,so tomorrow morning start to detail it,before,


joining lower and upper,


well hope you like the days progress on this,so far, 9_9

thats what i like about german camo......even if it comes out bad no one can say its wrong cos there was no standardisation


i find it amazing that a nation so governed by rules just said lets paint them dark yellow.....heres a tin of reddy brown and a tin of green.......go and make it up yourself!

I do agree,even at some stage there were coming out in tri-color they still alter the patterns as well, 9_9

ta Bob,glad your liking it so far,I do paint the wheels on the spur,then just touch them up,makes it a bit quicker to me,

 

[monica]

yesterdays update ,have both hulls joined, 9_9


painted the inside as its fiddly ,and I would most likely not do it ,later on,


so that were I,m upto,will start the wheel,and the bits and bobs on the out side,


then make a start on the tracks,


so that's my plan,
