That's dedication for you

Got the light chromed fitted and added a little bit of rust using the Tamiya thin method. Just touch a bit of the glue where you want the rust, while still wet prod it a bit with a cocktail stick then when dry paint some rust colour over the area then wipe some off with a cotton bud.

Sorry it's been a while but I've now just about got this completed, I just need to make a base for it if I can find some things like beach balls and wind breaks if you know what I mean.

Cracking build Ian really love the colour and the weathering and the detail is spot on .
Would be nice to see it on a base but at the same time it also looks perfect as it is great job.
