Not that it looks much different than before but this now almost there; I'm leaving off tools and more fragile bits such as ariels. Primer/base-coat to go on this weekend - Promise Nemo   P |

LOL! Glad it is back on your bench! Looking great! A guy once told me that Challenger is the best armor on the earth... I was wondering if you disagree with him?  |

Nemo is such a bad man ER so don't even mention you've got a leo hiding in the stash I've only been working on the bleedin thing for about 9 months- we're not all demi-gods of styrene  ( I wont give him full-god status - he'd be bleedin' impossible.  ) P |

Cheers guys; I'm away from the bench this weekend, but when I get back the first order of business is to get a primer/basecoat on. As I've recently discovered Vallejo coloured primers, I've sourced some of the NATO green, so things should move along nicely after that... just don't let Nemo know 'cause he'll ride me like a donkey....

Happy to report progress with this: I've moved onto and got a good way into the painting  As mentioned I've recently discovered the Vallejo cloured primer/base coats and used their NATO green as the base colour. Over that went the Leather brown and Tar black from the Vallejo ISAF colour set . Happy with how she's looking so far. Wheels are off for detailing separately as are all the delicate bits and pieces     Onwards and upwards... ACW P |
