Some more photos. Have painted the tools & spare track. Need to fix a few painting casualties then she is done

Nice work Rob. A bit heavy weathering for my taste, but of course this does not mean it's wrong. Africa is quite abrasive environment, so if she survived for a few months she would definitely look like this.

 

The only suggestion  that I have is that maybe you should add a little more dust, cause it's too clean for this amount of wear.

 

Cheers,

Nenad

Another nice job and I like the chipping, looks like it ran through a bramble patch and got scratched up, haha.

That's a different camo scheme, like it.

Cheers Lloyd - camo scheme is just a standard Caunter scheme from North Africa

Thanks Nenad, yes I was worried it was too heavy on the weathering BUT it is growing on me. Yes I need to add more powders but that will be the very last step.

Hi Rob,
Even with so much wear, it looks very good, as the previous partner comments, something more dust, it seems that it could not hurt him at all ...
Nice job.

Cheers and TC
