I'll be quite now promise Your CR1 is certainly a great improvement over the standard OOB kit Roger 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasper dog Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 Nice work on the TOGs Ivan, pity it was done so quick..... (must be something else you can add...) Just need to get my finger out now I suppose and get the antislip done before you romp away! Atb Darryl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivan-o Posted July 27, 2020 Author Share Posted July 27, 2020 Thanks all for your comments. Your right Darryl there is a bit more to be done! I forgot the door open and closed lever. 😀 After this there will be a good sized break to modelling due to an impending move.More worrying is OIC household asking me what I was going to do with my models!! 🤔(silly question really) cheers Ivan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might well have used the 0.3 for the tie downs but the bit woundt hold in my drill 😟 HTH, Ivan Thanks Ivan - yes it does! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivan-o Posted August 1, 2020 Author Share Posted August 1, 2020 Hi guys, Just a bit of a tinker with the TOGs door, cheers Ivan 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivan-o Posted August 2, 2020 Author Share Posted August 2, 2020 Ok then, anti slip on,primer on just the extra turret bits, tools etc and then on to paint! Rather enjoyed doing this and quite pleased how it’s turning out😀 cheers Ivan 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hamden Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 This one is coming together now, the anti-slip looks spot on. Looking forward to seeing this in paint now Roger 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasper dog Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 Hi Ivan, coming along really well, nice work. Just a quick query (for my own benefit much as owt), does the anti slip not cover the sloping front of the turret and the rear turret bin. Or is it a case of it varying from vehicle to vehicle?

Cheers Darryl Not sure Darryl but photos I have show only on top of the turret, Cr2 does have it down the slope and turret sides though.

ivan-o Posted August 16, 2020 Author Share Posted August 16, 2020 Hi guys, now this heat has gone down a tad I have got the airbrush out, Hataka paints have been used IRR green and light stone. cheers Ivan 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasper dog Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 Hi ivan, coming on nicely, just thrown some paint at mine btw. At least you've gone green and stone, wouldn't it have been embarrassing if we'd both done green and black! Still tempted by some decent tracks after seeing yours.... Nice work Darryl 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivan-o Posted August 16, 2020 Author Share Posted August 16, 2020 Thanks Darryl, Its going to complete my ‘enemy’ collection from Salisbury Plain.

Only done one set of Fruils and I actually enjoyed them...must be mad! I'll see how the Tamiya ones work out and then decide.

Hamden Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 As already said that is looking very swish, I do like the sand/green scheme over the black/green. Not far to the line now! Roger 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivan-o Posted August 17, 2020 Author Share Posted August 17, 2020 Thanks for the comments 👍 Kris for this one I used a 50/50 mix of fine/ medium pumice powder, I painted a section using enamel paint and then sprinkled the powder on,knock off the excess and when dry use a soft brush to dust it off.

Nothing wrong with black/green Darryl I just prefer the BATUS/Salisbury Plain schemes as they are not so often dipicted on scale replicas.
