Graeme's Tamiya Puma

Hi Graeme
A nice neat build. I doubt the primer coat will show up any problems so bring on the 3 colour camo.

Thanks Guys, Three colour camo is planned for this beast, just got to find the time....

Looks an interesting build. Although I did pause when I saw two steering wheels. Different.

[Graeme C.]

Thanks Colin, apparently they could drive it from either end to get it out of trouble, 8 wheel drive, 8 wheel steer, over engineered maybe? Definitely different.

Looking forward to seeing the camo go on!!

What a treat having two styles of building the same kit by you and Scottie although the plastic used here is Tammy's and one of the best plastics around. Neat build Graeme, the three tone camo will be great on this.

Cheers,
Richard

Looking mighty fine. PaulE

Andrew, Richard & Paul, thanks for the kind words, paint should be going on soon!
A few more of the small bits & pieces done, the PE for the jerrycan holders is a little fiddly, but I managed to get them done without losing any. The tools have been cleaned up, the fire extinguishers had large mould lines on them. I'm only going to use one of the figures, an officer with binoculars, as the other has large gloves only suitable for mid winter and given my option is for Normandy 1944, I don't think he would need them! The tools will be added after paint.

Graeme,
Nice work on the etch, bring on the paint

Ditto. Great work mate

Hi Graeme, coming together nicely. That figure looks to have some nice detail and should look good painted up :thumb2:

[Graeme C.]

Thanks Guys, the first coat of primer has gone on today, the figure isn't bad but has a rather short neck!

[Graeme C.]

Further progress, we have paint, the first base coat of dunklegelb is done, with wheels, tools & jerrycans in their first coat. The figure is in primer, ready for an attempt at figure painting!

Hi Graeme, The base coat looks good. What pattern are you going for.

[Graeme C.]

Hi Paul, thanks. I'm going for the soft edged three colour camo, the marking options in the kit all use that scheme.
