Cheers John, will go with what's on Wiki and make it up 😉 Assuming I can get the 18pdr kit

very nice.... don't suppose you are able to measure 1) the diameter of the shell slots in the limber 2) the size of the 4x3 rack 3) the length of the shell (have got an idea from Wiki but having the measurements form a 1/35 scale would save my blushes) if I can get one (trying to just go to the cheap option of the Emhar kit) I want to mount the 18pdr on a M3 Stuart body (one photo of this done once) and want to add ammo storage in to the body... thanks

Chipped back to get to the wood for the rear cab and truck bed (night a huge amount of contrast to the khaki so may have to emphasise that a little later (don't think I will paint the truck bed desert as until the crane was added it would all have been covered....- 82 replies

Thanks both... it looks OK from a distance but if you look closely it is a bit of a mess... not sure I would try this on a more "important" model. Will try to progress this through more weathering techniques before trying it elsewhere -

Thanks Keith... Trying slightly thicker oil round parts then cleaning up... It does leave muck as well as edges clearer so a good start to weathering -
