Thanks Mark!! Itching to get back to this tonight. Took yesterday off for the workshop with Steve and lost bench time...fair trade though!! ;D

Thank you Johanna!! Can't wait to dive into the painting and weathering of that engine!! ;D

Thanks Rossco...appreciate it!!

Like Ijust kind of sid to Mark above..getting back to work on this tonight. I have the bulk of tracks assembled in small section (thanks Bill) Next will be to pop the pads on and figure out the mounting!!

Thanks again!!

[eastrock]

I got punk'd T!!! I should have listen to my gut feeling instead of going to that stupid place. Its the same girl that rejected me in FaceBook... blood almost boiled to the limit didn't it was her I'll soon have my revenge when I finished with the BSC.

should have a major update with the Chally instead... as now I'm almost finish with the bronco tracks and sanding the teeth to make the tracks fit. oh well should learn to follow the instinct instead of being a dumb bug lol

[TRM]

Better luck next time on the female side of things ER!!! Stick with the plastic...kits, less trouble bro!!!


OK, back at it!!!

Tracks are going together, not that I have any pics for you onthis yet, you will have to trust me!

While plotting what will go on with the base I began shooting some color down.

First I needed to lay down some AK Chipping Fluid.



After letting the Chipping Fluid dry, the color began to fly.















At this point its all about the chipping. The rear deck is where I chose to start.





Thinking some of this might really pop once I get to washes/filters! Back to the chipping!!

Thanks for dropping in!!

[eastrock]

Buddy, Next time I'll be the one to look for myself lol just like a Prededator Hunter lol

Base color and chipping looks great

BTW may I ask some told me that the color of the number on the Tiger 323 is wrong... do you know the correct one? I may have to repaint it by brush. Thanks!!

Cheers!!
ER

Looking forward to the update T.

[Deleted]

Interesting that the Germans copied the Ford front suspension for this vehicle in a time (1940's) we (USA) always accused the Japanese of copying our designs.

[TRM]

A little bit of an update!

A start on the engine....



Still working on the engine and some details but its moving forward.





Thanks for having a peek!!!

[rondriaan]

Nice work on the engine and the rest off the vehicle off course

[TRM]

Thank you Ron! Hoping to add a few more items to this tonight.

[eastrock]

T, its coming together piece by piece... and still got a lot of time!!!

[TRM]

Thank you ER!!! A good night so far...another update!

I decided to add a little more to the engine tonight/ After some acrylics, I attacked the motor with some K4.

First up is some Engine Rust.



Next up is some Light Rust on the firewall and on some various parts.



A little Tire Wash on some of the Blak painted parts.



To soften things up a bit, some Afrika Wash.



Then some oil staining.







I will be hitting the motor with another wash or two tomorrow as well as some grime in the corners.

Thanks for stopping by again today!!! ;D
