Tony,as you may well be aware,when the pack is out of the vehicle,the front would be placed facing the front of the vehicle,so that all the services can be reconnected.Also,it would just be placed on the floor,although in this example it is on some sort of stand.  FOR DISCUSSION PURPOSES ONLY |

The weathering is spot on, The engine looks grimy but not overdone.

Really good looking pack you've put together there Tony.These K60 lumps were fairly good motors,although IIRC the gearboxes could cause a few probs,as could the cooling system.Saw a couple of 'Runaways',my 434 was one of 'em!...We got the heck outta there,and let it blow!! Will say one thing though,if I may,the red caps on the 'Marriage Panel' are just that,covers for the the services and electrical connections.(That's what they look like to me,anyway  ) |

As you can see I have not let the paint to get too thick and the resin still shows through. I then concentrated on those area and added a rough pre shade.  DSC_3859 by TonyThunder, on Flickr  DSC_3861 by TonyThunder, on Flickr  DSC_3858 by TonyThunder, on Flickr  DSC_3860 by TonyThunder, on Flickr Now to decide on a colour scheme! Help me out Guys! Do I go with a version of this which is a typical 70/80s BAOR scheme  DSC_2833 by TonyThunder, on Flickr A variation of this I know its a 434 but you get the picture.(I'm thinking Op Granby) but the even though you can barely see them the radio's are wrong and its started to bug me even before I make a firm decision)  DSC_2731 by TonyThunder, on Flickr Or This, a picture of a 432 MK2/1 taken in Aden 1966 (It was probably less than two years old when the pic was taken) the colour scheme is Light Stone and Deep Bronze Green  432 Saladin by TonyThunder, on Flickr So which one should I go with?

Tony,I know we've already spoken about this,but I'd go for the Aden scheme,because it's a bit more unusual. |

Really cool work Tony I like it a lot. I'd go for the Aiden scheme it will set it off well. Keep up the good work.
