A Russian SU122 tank commander, sights a field kitchen so decides, to stop for a much needed rest and some think to eat,

but not sure what you call these shops were you are

I look forward to this Monica. Yes, those weathering powders do look a lot like eye shadow. I've often contemplated nicking SWMBO's make up to see what I can do with it, but common sense (read fear) prevails.

well i hope i can make you sit for a bit and enjoy your popcorn Scott, so nice to have you along.

oh you boys are ont playing dress again are you, haha would be so funny to see if you did lol,

very nice clean kit, all bits well made with no flash at all,

well i did manage to get some done today which im very happy about,

got her primed, in med/gray and red/brown or hull, were i shell do the chipping,

so let that dry over night, then the hair stick in the morning, and later that night as i have to go out for hrs, oh boooo not fair,

will give her a few coats of Russian green, real a bit unsure of the right color, can get a bit like Japaneses colors,

but as she will be in winter camo, and harsh weathering ,wont matter,
