So I've got a bit more done, paint arrived so the bonnet and all the bits are painted now, done a wash on the cab, still playing with acrylic washes which do dry very quickly but I have discovered that by diluting some decal fix with water to dampen a cotton bud for clean up I can pretty much use same process as using enamel washes but without the smell or sticky mess I seem to end up with.most of the decals are in place, didn't want to slide off the backing very easy, had to lift them off with a scalpel blade .exhaust fitted, some etch tool clamps on the back, even managed two out of three wingnuts :smiling: once it's all together there's some weather to do, probably a dry mud if I can manage it.

Thanks Colin, still a novice at this wash and weathering lark, think I'm getting a little better at each try.
