Got some paint on, started with a black and white based, then some 4BO green and then I applied a lightened shade to highlight the top surfaces and a darkened shade to give some shadow on the lower parts.

The truck bed is all together and painted and I'll be using the canvas top as it is pretty well shaped and textured,there was no instruction as to the colour of the canvas so I painted it in revell aqua 362 greyish green, seems a good contrast to the 4bo of the truck which I used mission models paint, love there paint I dreaded airbrushing until I tried this stuff . :smiling:
Pretty much a case of varnishing everything now and on to the final fit up. Bit more engine detail to add when the cabs on.

Thanks Andy, think my liking for trucks must come from being around them when I was young,my dad had an hgv repair and recovery business.

There were no dash decals with this kit so did what I can, fill the dials in black and drybrushed silver edges,added what detail I could,won't really be seen anyway.
