patmaquette Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Hi all, This is my completed Airfix 1/48 Bedford MWD. The build thread is here: I opted for Dark Green No. 4 striping over Khaki Green No. 3 base colour. However, and as mentioned in the build thread, the stripes on the canvas areas were more likely KG3 in reality. Also my DG4 mix may be somewhat off (the green being too verdant). Apart from that, everything’s fine as far as I know!! Thanks for looking and please do go ahead and comment. I am a complete novice on vehicles so any tips for improving would be gratefully received, Cheers, Pat 19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bullbasket Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 Same comments apply here as in your wip, plus you've made a very realistic job of the tilt tie downs, considering that they are moulded on. Nice one. John. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patmaquette Posted January 22, 2019 Author Share Posted January 22, 2019 Many thanks for your comments both here and on the wip, John. I used Game Color 72.034 Bonewhite for the tie downs, dabbing it on using a fine brush to try and get a twisted rope effect. Cheers, Pat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many thanks, Mike. 😊 I enjoyed the build from start to finish and learnt a great deal on the way. I am looking forward to starting my next one, but I have a couple of other things on the bench at the moment. Cheers, Pat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
