Not as young as you think........or am I surrounded by old farts 🤔 

Physical age is just an abstract concept its natures way, the cream rises to the top and all that....

I'm not sure....I was hoping not to have to buy in anything specific...spacer.png

Might have to resort to the DW stug at this rate...

Honestly I don't have a problem with collecting kits, just don't tell the Mrs...

Little more progress, spent a pleasant few hours chipping away at the Panther..

Combination of lightened Vallejo dunklegelb and a little dark red primer. After that broke out the Ak pencils and added more scrapes and bare-metal effects.

The idea being rather than concentrating on one area do a little in one position move round do a bit more and so on, until the whole thing is done evenly...thats the plan anyway!

The pics....

Small if time consuming update today...

Exhausts almost done, shades of grey with a rust wash and a dust of soot pigment.

Along with the exhaust a dribble of rust staining, whilst armour plate won't corrode,  certainly in this time frame the steel fastenings, brackets etc would...

Looking good, Darryl !!

Thanks Lee, hadn't dawned on me how close we are to the end, over Christmas and New year isn't necessarily the best time to get modelling done...

I know, lol... I'm hoping to have this one finished over the weekend, dependent on the work situation.

Your chipping and general weathering is coming along beautifully Darryl! Going to be a real stunner! 

Kind regards,

Hadn't realised how little time I had left!
