Thanks Mac and Pete!!!! Sorry I havn't been on the forum much the last few days, Been busy with yard work and honey do stuff.  Gawd , same here John ! Your King is looking top notch . I like the base color under where the track shields were . I've read discussions about that area being painted at the factory before the track shields were applied . Makes sense . Carl, Thats just a peice of Tamiya masking tape, I have masked off the plastic where the skirts glue on. Thanks Tony, freak, and wouts  |

Andy's right, the zimmerite adds a lot of interest to it, especially now after the washes, and I like the subtle fading. Tracks look awesome too ! Sorry for jumping in this late John, I'm active in the rusty business these days.

I'm thinking a thin flat coat and some streaking on the non zimmed areas?

Gary, yeah, real light dusting on all surfaces to act as a flat filter. Instead of dry brushing, I'm dry dusting, LOL
