    Cruiser finished, back at work so things have slowed down.
    Antenna attached and tracks complete, I ended up washing, priming, airbrushing brown and then dry brushing.

    Many thanks to all who helped with suggestions, I am pleased with the tracks and there’s no way I would have achieved this without help.

      Like that, nice job. Tracks look great. Some people overdo the rust on them, but yours are just right.

        Looking quite nicely there. You’ve got the difficult decal on the turret roof, over the ventilator, down well too by the looks of it.

            Nice Work Matt, I have a Cromwell in my stash which will be next up on the bench, planning to weather mine, but if it looks as good as this after painting, I will be very happy!

                  Well done Matt. Must have done the mojo a world of good. What are your plans for your next build??

                    I do appreciate such a clean build, as time goes by and your experience builds you will find grubbing them up with some aggressive weathering can be quite fun.

                      Thanks Steve, I got a 1/48 beaufighter and mosquito for Christmas and picked up a king tiger and schwimmwagon from a mate who packed in modelling but am on with a North American RAF Mustang at the moment, just need more time
