Your comments are well taken Gents. I haven't figured out what color yet. All depends if I use it or not. If it goes with the truck, more than likely sand, with camo to match.
A WEE trailer? Nice one Dicky  Since it's German, I was thinking beer, but it could be Sake too cause it's Japanese.

Jeff, I do hope you a speedy recovery, you know a little rest will work wonders so stay away from the workbench. And let’s not forget about a nice warm relaxing dip in the tub with the house nurse providing you with a soothing but gentle sponging! That trailer you selected looks very well molded and detailed and goes great with the Dingo. |

Eddy , Good to hear from you Dude The tank came out of an Aoshima kit. It's the first of that make I'v had. It is well detailed. I'm thinkin' the tub thing is not an option,in the near future, as the Home Nurse has been working 2 weeks straight and needs Her rest Too Andy , Just what do you mean by that? " Looks good for that scale" ? Here's a question. Before I go too much further on this build I need some input. I painted the tires with Vallejo Dark Rubber. They look a little too grey to me.  Should I go Tamiya NATO Black?

First of all, great to hear you're feeling better Jeff Coming to the tires, I'd just go with a dark grey/blackish wash, nothing more. Tires tend to attract dust more than other parts, due to their coarse texture so they tend to look greyish, at least in my opinion |

I am planning a dusty finish on the little Guy, and thought that by the time I'm done they would be too light? |

Yeah, darker wash - for example with GW Nuln Oil or something similar (Vallejo?!) would be great. The Bundeswehr vehicles tires Ive seen so far in my past military career - and those were a few - looked like dark rubber. Nothing more, nothing less. My suggestion: >Black Wash >light brown dust (MIG/pastel chalk or something - whatever you like) |
