Moving right along with this one ER, that interior ought to show off nicely when all said and done.

Why worry, each of us is wearing an unlicensed nuclear accelerator on his back.

Test fitted the upper and lower hull, Base Color and Nato Green done, next would be a track wash of burn umber or sienna, just a bit of weather in the lower hull since it would be covered by the side armor... still need to slap some Nato Brown and Black. cheers!

Nice work with the colours but just one little thing to add ER the Gepard hardly ever had the track guards on, the photos typically showing them on are factory photos and after a rebuild.

Bill, yes it does look like a scene from star wars lol, Thanks ;D
Jack / Nemo, I did thought about that but the problem is if I remove the track guard, you could see the whole bare interior and you can also peek thru the other side ;D
Cheers!

Wing yes indeed the attack of the clone Bill, Thanks for that coming from a paint guru Brembo, will do Thanks for checking Tracks weathered with oil wash 1st wash burnt umber, 2nd wash mix with burnt sienna to lightened the tone... this will be covered in the meantime since I'll start tracing for the camo for NATO brown and Black.

Glad the build logs and SBS are helpful ER, camo pattern is looking good...now stop posting photos at midnight, you have to preserve your strength for the weathering to come. ;D
