discussion Tamiya 'famo' 18 ton halftrack

[shovelhead 1977]

my first attempt at weathering !

Nicely done.

bit more rusting done, not far of being finished now. don't know what the brown bit on the bulkhead is , is it a cover or something ?

 

[shovelhead 1977]

windscreen is now fitted , and it folds down , front nearly finished, tow cable fitted decals on and a bit more rust !

Looking good. The brown section is dust/weather seal to hood/bonnet. Less is better on rust as FAMOs were highly prized & well cared for by pros. PaulE
