The PE looks amazing!

[rondriaan]

Thnx guys for the compliments on the PE work ;D
It was for me the third time that I solder the PE parts and its going still better each time.
I have made a few mistakes but learning from them to avoid them for the next time.

Now that is some fantastic PE work. Really adds life to the model....and weight to

[wbill76]

Nice job on the PE/soldering, that shovel is particularly nice. Nothing like real wood to look like wood!

[eastrock]

Yessssss this week the PE fenders from E.T arrived so that I could do a little bit more work on the JS
I made a few anti panzerfaust screens and dryfit them on the JS but I doint know if I used them?
And after years I painted the figures in there base coat, and for now a few smal things to do and he can to the paint booth.

[wbill76]

PE screens and fenders look sharp Ron, look forward to seeing this one with paint on.

[danb]

Thnx guys for the comments.

jackwagon the E.T fenders are nice and a good price tag on it, they are in my opinion a little better then Voyager but the fit was not so good because I have some problems with the fit on the hull what i don't have has with the Voyager that I have ruined
But for every problem is a solution off course ;D

[tonylee]

Can't believe I missed that last update. Man that looks great with all the PE, especially the fenders. Looks like you got the fenders on ok. Can't wait for the fun part...........paint

[rondriaan]

The build off the model is done for the moment and he can on wait for the paint but first I have to finished the Centurion ARV





Some last minute details added, was almost forgotten those two things





If one off you guys see something that i have forgotten of needs improvement please let me know

[406 Silverado]

Looks great with the wheels and tracks. I kind of like it with out paint, really shows all the work and details that went into the build.

[danb]

I agree, no improvement needed. This is a seriously cool lookin' muthatrucka!

Love the casting numbers, great detail!

Cheers

[rondriaan]

Thnx guys.

I cant wait to paint this one also but I must be patient or else I get to much models on the bench and that is not good

[rondriaan]

After a day with lots off troubles with the airbrush, bend needle (I did it stupid ) and a worn out nozzle I managed to paint the JS.

For me this is a very extreme base coat with those colors and will see how its end but I think a need a lot of washes and filters

The paint that I have used is a set for Russian vehicles from AK, first time for me that I used a set off paint normally I mix my colors.

[406 Silverado]

wow, that is some very impressive CM. It's not too overdone and in the right places. the weathering will bring this model to life for sure.

[rondriaan]

Thanks Rob,

This the first time for me that I go this way and now wondering how to go further?

[406 Silverado]

I'd say that next would be filters and washes to start.

[spud]

Awsome CM Ron

[wbill76]

Nice to see this one get some paint on despite the needle mishap! Looking good.

[wouter]

finally a Ron update, it's been a while ;D ;D

Looks great mate, love the CM style, will make a very nice result after a sh$tload of weathering ^^

Cheers

[danb]

Excellent work Ron on the CM the AK set has some really nice colours might have to get that set make it dirty as hell Ron the Russian beasts look better that way keep up the good work.
