    Well that turned out a bit better than I expected, not perfect but it will do for me. Needs a wee touch up here and there but the step gets painted black so that will take care of the door bottom.

    Still got a lot to learn about fiddly masking though.

      Looks good to me, time you got the screen in up to that front edge it'll be spot on mate.

        Andy,
        I must admit that I would have painted the doors white, then masked them up & sprayed red overall, but your way seems just as successful!

          I did think about that Dave but the door hinges protrude a bit and I figured there was a better chance of getting it right if I masked around the doors instead of trying to cover the hinges properly. The rear section has flat sides so it has already been painted white and 5mm masking tape will be on before the red top coat.

            As we have had a bit of rain the last couple of days my attic workroom has cooled down enough for me to get a bit done. Cab and rear section all painted up and the picture shows a dry fit as there are a few more small parts and decals to add before the final assembly.

            Hopefully it will not be long now.

              Coming on nicely mate, think ICM do a crew to go with this.

                  Hi Andy
                  That has come on a treat. Looks great with the paint job. Red is not my favourite colour to work with but you have done a fine job.
