Thank you gents, and yes, it's pretty much taken over the shed. At least most of the sprues are out of the way now, but I still seem to have no space left to put anything, especially now that I've started a base for it!
The underside was masked up, then I sprayed on the Dark Sea Grey. Somehow in my excitement I forgot to get a picture of that though :rolling:

I gave the grey an hour than started to mask it up for the green. I'd thought about going freehand but I'm still not happy with the results I get from that, and she's a bit unwieldy anyway. It was too cold to get blu tack worms to stick, so out came the tape.

I ran out of time to get the green on, but my legs and back were aching anyway from being stood up masking for so long so it's a job for tomorrow.
I assembled and painted the props today too. I decided to spray the tips rather than use the decals. They aren't perfectly straight but at this scale I'm happy enough, and I doubt the decals would have gone on any better anyway!

Probably teaching most of you to suck eggs, but here's some SBS thumbnails for anyone that's interested.

And there's more lol.
I started making a simple base for this by getting the trusty saw out and slicing up some left over laminate flooring

I scribed some lines into it to represent concrete expansion joints then gave it a coat of primer

Then splashed a few colours over it.

It would probably do as it is with some grass on it, but I intend to do a bit more.
Thanks for keeping with me :smiling3:
