The water effect is fantastic. It makes the overall build and finishing top notch.

Thanks for the most excellent comments, everyone. I'm glad you like the final version. I think I'll keep it for myself and tell the Grandson the dog's had it!

I've just realised. I've forgotten to answer Colin's question as to what combat theatre this pattern of camo. was used.

Sorry, Colin I don't know. Our fellow modeller Colin (col68) wrote earlier, it is based on the U.S. Mid European Disruptive pattern. I suppose it could have been used for any projected amphibious landing on N. Korean beaches. Can't add anymore than that, sorry.......Over to the members perhaps?

Thanks again for all the posts.

Ron in the 80's the Americans used 4 colours green,brown,black and off white (tamiya buff is a close match) to match the climate the vehicles were operating in so in western Europe the base coat would of been green with then broken up with the other colours
