Apologies Ian.

Got the name wrong & what I wanted to ask.

Interested to know how you achieved the effect of corrosion or wear.

No problems Laurie i used the salt method on the skids

Great paint job, Ian. Looks like you did a nice job with the decals, too!

 

[papa 695]

Thanks the Decals with this kit went on very well indeed it's just a pity they didn't include the Tiger stripes. But saying that i wouldn't have had so much fun painting them on

Just catching up Ian and I must say, this build is great mate. Love the salt on the skids.

Have fun, John
