      Maciej, you've done a great job. Some great subtle weathering, like the high lights on the shovel.:thumb2::thumb2::thumb2:. As for the front :nerd:

                Is the nose paint or decal. If paint was it freehand or pencil and line or how. Looks really symmetrical.

                  Nose is mixed, line is decal and two dots are painted, I made a template and spray with airbrush one by one. It was easy-ish as both dots are going on little fixings for gun holder.

                    Hi,

                    I'm working on the same model with my kids, sadly the instruction was lost last year in a flooding. Would you, or anyone else be so kind and scan me a PDF version of it ? Or does anyone know where I can find it? Tried the manufacturer but it's taking forever. Thanks in advance.
