As i need to get some AK burnishing fluid for my Victory dio ive decided to put in an order for that so while i wait on that im going to do somthing small to fill the time it will prob take to arive so here it is.    Oh and no ER its not a shelf Queen even before you ask!  Now im going to use the Hobbyboss sd.kfz223 leichter wich is a sweet kit btw, A Celticwerks base and a Squadron figure, And this is the idea Somthing Simple, and as i wanted to do somit while i order the stuff i decided i may as well support Scott.  thats my Excuse and im sticking with it.  |

I've just run out of Tamiya Acrylic Dark Grey, would guess 3 LHS has no stock of it  I was suppose to finished the cockpit of the speeder... end up with the finishing the Dorchester side armor of the chally instead, just waiting for the CA glue to set in... I'll be pushing the ship to finished also... as well as the DML tiger. I saw the CW base review, I would like to try one but the postal here is awful it might end up destroyed.  |

no problem with the packing what I mean... the service here is awful when they see something interesting, it will be considered as lost or even charge it with a higher fee, its already featured in the news but still they doing it after a couple of days.

Looks like a cool project Spud, the 223 ought to fit in perfectly with the figure. Look forward to seeing it come to life.

Great job on that base, spud. Maybe the best way to make it look wet can be darkening the colours in the "wet" zone...

Thanks Luigi , I was trying to make it look wet with a glossy look to it, ill get there in the end tough |

Coming along nicely spud! Shouldn't be too hard to scrounge up some ammo boxes for those racks...or in the worst case, just scratch some together to fill the spot...it's not likely going to be very visible once you have the turret and gun installed. |

Post by spud on Apr 30, 2012 19:38:09 GMT -5
Ya i was thinking of not bothering, You will have to "look" to see there is no ammo and unless you know what they are you wont know its missing but if i can see some with the turret on i may just add 1 or 2 of them And thanks Bill |
