    Caught up a bit and great stuff Paul, neat looking tarp and netting.

    Love the small details like the various chains, tie downs and straps.

    Great weathering too.:thumb2:

        Thanks Scottie
        Certainly very effective. I would not have thought of using x20. A couple of the pigment fixers I've tried have darkened the pigment and made it shiny. Ok for wet mud but less good for dry mud
        I'm learning a lot from this build.

            Jim, I try and keep things as simple as possible I don't go in for all these designer products and the X20 has always worked for me. Normally the only things to be learnt from my builds is do the opposite:smiling:

                Were those Arctic maneuvers? Sounds like you met most of the population. PaulE

                  Hi Paul,
                  Not winter exercises but there is a saying in Alberta, "If you don't like the weather wait a minute"

                      Like the extra's you've added and the weathering in the wheel wells.

                      cheers

                          I think the build is just about done now. The components have been assembled and a few more bits added. The boys Anti tank rifle had the monopod added and the strap to the rear grip. Then the rifles were added a tin hat had the liner added and hung over one of them. It will get a final weathering when placed on the base which I still haven't worked out what I'm doing yet.

                            The weathering on the vehicles is absolutely stunning...

                                Too cool for school! A real stunner of an old campaigner. Well done. Can't wait to see how'll present them. PaulE
