    Still playing with the figures and kit. Now attempting the skin tones .
    Meanwhile I sprayed the T26 and the Motor bike and side car with some AK gloss varnish with a view to starting the weathering in a day or so.

        Coming on nicely John. Dark pictures are underexposed due to the predominantly white background

              Seem to have lost the plot over this build, done the gloss varnishing on the two vehicles . Weathering of those seems a bit hit a miss. Anyone else suddenly get that feeling of I just want this done ?

              The figures are a lot better, just have to fix some kit and weapons .

                Don't despair 453.
                You are not alone. I am having the same feelings about the bonkers boat on stilts I'm building!

                Chin up and pants down. Matron will be along shortly with some tonic in a syringe!

                  Regularly. It happens near the end of every build. The worst thing is when I do complete a build or a dio I think "Could it have been better if I hadn't rushed and cut corners at the end"

                      Unfortunately Matron is on a course , upgrading her hypodermic system so not going to wonder about with my pants down .

                      Glad I'm not alone then 570 .

                      Thought that countless times Jim . Always see something that I missed or rushed !

                        Finished the figures that I'm having on this, I'd had more mainly sitting but theres very little room for them with the arial .
                        The figure need a touch up here and there buy happy with the overall look .

                          Erm...
                          Pedant time probably, but a T-26 in Russia shouldn't have a Spanish flag on the turret?
                          Correct me if I'm wrong

                              John great work all round its looking good but as for how you feel I cant shake it off havent done any since dont know when , just felt like going through the motions all the time just like going to work but hey. The truck GB almost pressed a button but the rules were changed every five minutes instead of being firmly laid down from the word go so that's gone from the radar. However looking back through the finished/started builds last night someone was rude about one of my favorite manufacturers so was straight on to the SM Shop same kit is in the post so who knows ,I'll pm you later with a bit of news so keep a eye (no offence meant buddy)on your in tray. Dave
