      Looking very nice.
      I brush painted a similar camo on a tank and a universal carrier a while back. I used Vallejo model color thinned down and two coats. Don't know if that's any help.

          Thanks very much guys,
          I've shoved some wheels on,(front and back :nerd,
          And then attempted the camo in Kawasaki green ... it's brush painted,and needs more coats/weathering,as you wil see :flushed: !
          So,less ado,and this ain't great,or near completed, but ere we go...

          So then,as I said, there's much more to be done, especially on the camo,but as it stands, I'm hopeful of a good result :hugging-face:
          As always, thanks for looking in,and any thoughts or plain ole abuse most appreciated!!

                  ... done some of that this evening,and made more progress with the green on the fuselage...

                    Top work Andy.
                    The camo looks really good. You should be well chuffed with it.
                    I had much the same feeling when I painted my Sparviero.

                    Well done. :thumb2:

                            Well the Camo is definitely not “blown” as you previously worried about :tears-of-joy:

                            Top work Andy, well done :thumb2:
