Brown on and the 25 Pdr has a coat of green. Time for a stretch whilst that lot dries.

Time for some curry leftovers - masking off the Quad, and the 25 Pdr can be assembled later.

Howitzer assembled, but it needed another coat of green as there were different hues of green from different spraying sessions. Quad has had a coat of Klear, and some wheels on the chassis - it's moving forward, but some fresh air and a stretch needed.

Decals have gone on nicely I think. Just need time for them to dry so they can be cleaned down, and then we can get a matt coat on. Some light weathering on the 25 Pdr and the limber, and if I get time I'll put some more on with the airbrush and a couple of washes, but time for some supper now.

Despite having far too many kits it's really tempting....

Go on - cheap as chips and lots of fun. Don't know if the earlier issues are better mould-wise, but there wasn't much flash really.

Final session - probably shouldn't have opened that bottle of Cremant, but here we go. Decal clean first, matt coat, finish the driver, and then a bit of weathering.

Just don't leave it near a heater to dry the paint !

 

Cheers Pat

Another late finish - about 22 hours in total - posting gallery pics in a mo. 😀
