  1. Thanks both..... She now has skits on ... Need to add some rust staining where the scratches are "deepest" and more pigments.....
  2. More progress .. interior parts I need to build are done, think it now needs painting.... Started on the roof and some fender boxes....
  3. Wheels and tracks on.... Going to add the side skirts then more pigments.... Getting close to being done
  4. First round of pigments. Wasn't too happy at first but as the dried it became better. Need a second layer and more variation in tone.... Pigments just made from cheap pastels from WH Smiths so can mix any colour I like....
  5. Bit of chipping and rusting..... Think pigments next
  6. Stowage added, figure added, detail painting almost done (need to tone down the wooden handles). Need to add wing mirrors and do a light weathering and it will be done......
  7. On to external stowage. Not sure the front cans are secure enough but research seems to show this way to wire them up ..
  8. or of course a Greyhound (the excellent Tamiya one)
  9. Stowage on, need to add the front (2 oil cans) and exterior stowage and the wheels then a light dusting....
  10. Brown on (ammo 0015 schokobraun lightened with old wood)....
  11. I could be up for this - a nice BergePanzer Panther
  12. Yep I tempted by a late version too (and the new Takom ones with full interior)
  13. This is great work.... Building my first Hetzer (recovery variant) and would love to do a "proper" one as well.....
  14. Very nice. I have this kit in the stash, will have to read through the full build for any pitfalls when I do mine
  15. Olive green modulation (MiG 002 cut with MiG 058 light green khaki....). Next up dot masking and brown...
  16. Saturday means paint.... Primer on. Might get the camo started (ie a coat of green) tomorrow
  17. So it has started... Very small engine (looks like the spaceship from Red Dwarf) and transmission.... All parts loose to ease painting ...
  18. luckily the big square hole only has a smakk sqyare tray so some is visible... and the engine decks will be left open but yep lots is invisible
  19. next build lined up.... sill small and again packed full with interior.... going with the first scheme (I say scheme, there are 3, all Russian green with a couple of markings).... Hope to break ground on this one in the next few days but box & sprue (there are a lot) shots:
  20. Build complete, chickened out and went for travel mode for all the job pieces..... Off to the paint shop at the weekend
  21. cheers Roger... a few more bits & bobs to add or to prepare (will leave the crane poles off for painting) but might get it primed this weekend....
  22. Driver painted.... Need to work on figures, think I dilute paint too much....
