Yeah it got a couple at the AMPS in Sept. I gave it to Iain along with the Gold medal. Figured he was there at the start of the build and it has the big AK graffiti on it.

Looks great to see the paint on her T. Just needs to get the settings right...and less of the photo editing. I'm thinking the actual color is closer to this and less reddish purple.

Thanks guys! Appreciate the comments...great motivation!! Rob, Close. I auto corrected the primed pics. The were mucho dark for some reason. Kids might have screwed with the settings on me, not sure. The bottom one I posted I am thinking is real close. The base was a heavy mix of Hull Red and Dark Brown for starters. I have some more stuff to mess with tonight...I'll take a look and try and get a handle on it!

Thank you fellas, for tuning in!! Nice Rob!! Polish mafia (not that anyone ever heard of it)!! Think my Great Grandfather ran booze during prohibition! Funny one Thom!! ;D Where it stands....till about an hour, when I heat up the AB and put the old blindfold on!! Suspension is on. Those burnt out wheels...LOL...are a little bit bigger than peas!! Not much to see yet You can see part of the engine in there. I was working on that last night. I will try to finish it up tonight Thanks for stopping in!!

Thanks Rob!! I was able to shoot the wheels and some interior burnshadingcolorshiftingtypeofstuff tonight too. Need to wait till it dries then I get to screw around. Thanks you Edi!!! Much appreciated!! Thanks Steve!! Sorry bout the name thing....just trying to keep things interesting...in my own mind I guess! If anything, it's good for a laugh! ;D The upper hull section actually needs to sit down tighter when I am done, just kind of propped that one there. The front plate will have some bendy-twisty stuff happening to it when it's done.
