Thanks Rob.
Decals have gone on and a flat varnish coat over the top then back in the box to dry. Hopefully get some pics up tomorrow after I give her another filter or two and then I'll start on the undercarraige bits. A bit back to front but it works for me.
Laters peeps.

Wouts is right Paul - subtle but ya can see the effect - toned down the harshness between colours and generally given it a nice faded look overall.  Wouts - Belgian variant mods?.....what's that then, seventeen beer crates on the back? (((LOL))) LOL ;D ;D ;D Nah, the Belgian Leo received some modernisation in the 90's (Leo 1A5BE) but to be honest I don't know exactly which ones. A Belgian Modeller who was actually a tank commander in the past build one with the conversion scratched. I checked out his blog but the pictures had dissapeared. He actually won a gong on Euro last year or a couple of years ago if I'm not mistaken  And where are those pics Paul?  Cheers |

Thanks for the words of encouragement guys  Ankle-biters now in bed so hoping that an hour or so of paint time should let me finish what I've got planned for tonight. Promise some more updates over the weekend TTFN P |

Next layer of wash & filter now drying. lights probaby next . Hadn't originally given much tought to a base tbh jackwagon  , but I'm minded to just try a nice simple sandpaper tarmac type of set up. Minimum input - some sandpaper, glue and maybe a bit of paint, for a hopefully half decent result. We shall see... Cheers Robbo. P |
