      Well, if you've got to get more paint, then might as well get the 'right' shade :thumb2:

        I brought the bronze green for this one but turns out they first produced this truck about a year after they starting using drab, I'll use the bronze green on my scammel, that fits the right age bracket!

          Just about all in primer now, got some steel and rust undercoat on here and there for chipping later.
          Working on the canvas top, was made in five sections and had to lose the joins so I kept brushing tamiya thin in the joins until they had melted together and then sanded, got a bit more sanding yet.Click image for larger version

            As Eric used to say "Can't see the join!"
            Looking good.

                        Mark,
                        Apologies I have only just found this. You are making a great job of it and the wear and tear looks good. As to the engine you could argue as to it not being seen the same as tank interiors when their all buttoned up you cant see much.

                          No worries mate and thanks for the good comments, it's all still trial and error at the moment but I think I'm getting a bit better with each model :smiling:
