All the little bits added to the bodywork ( apart from the tools). The outside is basecoated - brush painted, 'cos I couldn't be bothered to mask up the interior...................

Chassis & bodywork joined - a very nice fit! Tyres scuffed up with wire wool. A bit of touching up needed here & there, and I can get the compressor fired up ( at low pressure ) to spray the green & red-brown camo. I'll be doing this freehand, so it may take me a few passes!
It has all gone very well - the only real problem is that ICM are producing parts to scale! This makes taking the bits off the sprue, cleaning up & assembly very tricky. The offside indicators/spotlight took me about 5 attempts to put on the body - CA & accelerator finally got it! I don't think that they'll last long as they're very fragile!
