      Morning all.

      Finished up the cab this weekend. First was a second weathering pass, I kept it simple with a sand clay wash followed up by some pigments, mostly on the floor and lower parts, and the seats. Again, not much will be seen once closed and with the (open) doors fitted so I didn't go mad.



      Next I had to finish the dashboard which had already been painted but needed a wash and 17 decals applied.



      And with that all done I could get the roof on. This all seems to fit well.






      I think next I will get the exterior of the cab and the doors painted, then move on to the rear bed.

              Morning all.

              I seem to have forgotten to update this thread, and quite a bit has been done.

              First up was finishing the exterior of the cab with various handrails, sensors, camera & lights. Next I built up the rear load bay and turret before getting the various decals applied. I found it amusing the number of health and safety placards that are on this vehicle. Finally everything was given a matt coat, which looks gloss in the pics as I had literally just sprayed it.

              I've also painted all the other greeblies, so I can now get on with the fun part, weathering.

                Looking superb Bob. That interior is a thing of beauty. The clay wash has worked a treat.

                  Cheers Jim.

                  The exterior is also due for a clay wash, although ever so slightly heavier.

                      Cheers Paul.

                      Hataka orange line lacquers, I really like them for aircraft and armour.
