Reminds me of the old Earl Scheib commercials Tony! Nice job on the green, looking forward to the next phase with the weathering and markings.

Yeah Bill when they first opened it was Black, Red, Green, Yellow or White only $19.95. They would smear water soluble grease on the glass, lights and chrome and let her rip. ;D Here you go guys, decals and tools. Build them low and put big old white numbers on em so they are harder to spot by the enemy. I'll watch a little football and then add the washes. Those should bring out the beauty in her Tony lee

I used Raw Umber on the SU 76 with light dust pigments and it turned out well I thought jackwagon. I mix my own washes and can adjust the density of the color to suit me.
I'm thinking this one is going to be on the nasty side anyway being on the the eastern front.

Very nice Tony...love the tools. May I suggest a nice heavy bourbon wash, a little champagne for highlights and some serious dark beer on the tracks..
Hummm...must be close to New Years...the mind is wandering.
Rounds Complete!!

jackwagon the wash is on and I followed Mikes recipe to the letter. Oh brother that's a lot of rivets and I hit everyone of them twice. Now that is pure sex if I do say so myself. Just like the Bishop decals these are thick too. Tony lee

I may put it in the dehydrator tomorrow and speed up the drying time. Watching paint dry is boring. Come on Dallas just one more time for me. ;D Tony lee

Unfortunately Tony, I think Romo heard your 'one more time' and delivered the 3rd INT! Playoffs are going to be veerrrrrry interestink from her on out!

Romo is just a guy that fills a QB position. Jones won't hire a coach that can manage the team his ego won't let him. Always liked Green Bay,win or lose they play football,screw the Cowboys. Tony lee

Ooooo I can just see Tony working his usual magic with that crew set! Someone needs to lobby Miniart to hurry up with that release.
