That looks like a great kit which is coming together nicely.

Ready to do some priming and figure out how to paint this thing.

Not interested in the desert scheme as sand gets a bit boring so I am thinking of doing the South Korean 3 colour camo, that is, if I can figure out how to do it as masking this model may present a few problems. If I was any good with a brush it might be OK, but my hairy stick skills are worse than my efforts with an airbrush.

It’s looking good Andy.

the South Korean 3 colour camo

You mean the three-colour NATO camouflage scheme? You can spray that freehand, though the overspray is likely to be greater than official tolerances allow However, some weathering usually quickly gets that under control.

Good idea with the S. Korean paint scheme. Big fan of that look

Sorry I missed the start of this. A nice build so far, I will follow along.

First coat of Nato green on before assembly of the tracks and other bits that can go on without getting in the way of other colours.

In case anyone is wondering how this build is getting on the answer is it is not going anywhere right now. I have parked it to one side for now as I am thinking that tanks are just not for me. I have built a couple but right now they do not hold my attention, so much so that I may sell the 2 I have untouched in the small stash that is under the bench. If I do decide to sell them I will put them up on the forum and if no one wants them then Ebay beckons.

Andy,
No worries mate. What do you plan to build to get the juices going again.

[JR]

Best thing to do If you feel that way Andy.

Thanks guys, I am thinking the Diamond T dump truck could be next as I do like things with lots of wheels.
