Me too, hopefully I’ll get around to the black on Thursday, then I may let it cure a bit before unmasking everything. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marklo Posted June 25, 2022 Author Share Posted June 25, 2022 Last round of masking A coat of NATO black Turret unmasked!!! Hull unmasked Both together for the full effect. I think I may need a clear coat and a few washed to bring it all together. But first there are a lot of small fiddly parts to add on and paint. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I’m very pleased with the result. If I ever get it to a real life club meeting it will make a great talking point 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marklo Posted June 30, 2022 Author Share Posted June 30, 2022 Greeblies ready for paint. I’ll spray them in the light green, then attach them then hand paint the other colours as necessary. And painted. Which means final assembly tomorrow and hopefully finished by the weekend. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marklo Posted July 2, 2022 Author Share Posted July 2, 2022 All bits glued on and (almost ) all the paintwork finished. I’ll do some light weathering and dust/grime as all the photos show quite a clean machine. I must admit I’m loving the look, well worth the masking hell that was the digital camo. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arfa1983 Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 It certainly was worth the effort it looks marvellous. Please try get some final photos with good lighting so we can all admire the paint job! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marklo Posted July 4, 2022 Author Share Posted July 4, 2022 Weathering, just some streaking grime and some pastels for mud/dust. Streaking grime cut back with a tissue, a hen a brush finally a cotton bud soaked in white spirit. Tones down the camo a bit and brings it all together. Just need the pastels to dry then brush the dust effect back. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
