Impressive build T, just 100% eyecandy. Now it really begins for me, watch how you paint and finish this baby. By the way, I missed a lot of great stuff in this thread while I was working on the Rusty Admiral diorama setting, sorry for that my friend.

Thanks you very much Carl!! Missed this the other day...sorry bout that!! OK...coming off a little stretch getting acclimated with the new compressor and other life duties that arose, comes another little update. I have a plan on what I am after here so if it seems a bit confusing, it may clear up buy the later stages. For waht it was worth, a little shading...   You are seeing this correctly, light grey primer on the top and yellow on the bottom. No particular reason other than it was what I grabbed off the bench!! The lower end is darker with the next application so it will not matter too much.   So this is where it stands... I have shaded numerous other parts as well as base coating the bogies and rollers in the same fashion. I will be moving forward on this during the week and will attempt to keep things updated. I have have the ArmorCon Show to attend Friday and Saturday this week and will be leaving for the show on Thursday! My thought was to bring this and work on some weathering at the show....all depends on how far along I get on the painting. As always, thanks for tuning in!! |

Thanks Boss! Work, sleep, work, sleep, work, sleep, show, show, show!!! Andy - LOL...not to far behind brotha'!! Thanks!! As for the show, this wasn't going to make it in but it sure would be nice to have soe I can work on the weathering at the MSC table!!! Thanks Jeff!! Lucky I have two sets of the AK Rust!! LOL!! Kidding, not too much at all. I thin the AK stuff when it calls for it and a few drops go a long way! Clear coated last night too!!! WooHoo!! If I am lucky, I will get the first paint application on the lower end tonight and maybe some just about everywhere else!! |
