Admin Duel part III - riding the rails - The duel continues.

[TRM]

Thank you Wes! Raining out right now...thinking I might have to postpone the wheel painting until later...but I have plenty of weathering to do! LOL

[TRM]

Things are getting close now...not too much of a rush though, as I have around 10 days before the AMPS show. I finished what is most of the painting end of the job and have moved into the weathering column. I still have a pile of touch ups, washes, pigments and what have you to do, but it is moving along!

[Leon]

This is looking awesome Todd! Looking forward to seeing it at the show.

[TRM]

Thanks Leon!! Woo Hoo...NEXT WEEK!! Good times will be at hand!

[fhvn4d]

You are two shades off on the correct burnt dunkegrau..... just sayin

[TRM]

I would figure if anyone knew burnt dunkelgrau it would be a firefighter! That is of course unless from one who might be a bit colorblind? LOL (psst...'gelb') But what's a little color spectrum shift amongst friends? LOL....Thanks Brotha'!!

That must be the extended chassis version of the Mk III. ..... but agreed, great work.

[joelsmith]

It's a Mk III.V mid war conversion ;<Q

[TRM]

Thanks fellas!!!

LOL!!!! Extended.... III/IV mid conversion.... after a long day working...just what I needed to put a smile on my face! All good PJ...you have III on the brain my friend! But you have to admit, the guys have a great way of making it all plausible!

[406 Silverado]

Looking good bro. Was great to see it in person last weekend.
wow, can't believe it was that long ago that we started this duel build. Mine is still where it was a couple of years ago lol.

[Leon]

Time to get a move on Rob! Days are counting down.

[TRM]

Nice...that is what I have been waiting to see...LOL Almost time to purge the shelf of doom! Make some room for new ones!

[406 Silverado]

lol Leon, no rush with it. Still have others to finish...and comm work too.

T still not sure if I'll use that vehicle or replace it with a tank!! Maybe the Brummbar lol

[TRM]

The Brumbar would be nice too! I still vote for a turret or two...part of an opel or bike...nice 109 with the wings jammed in there as well!! LOL

[panzerjager2]

OK so I can't tell a mark IV from a Mark III anymore LOL LOL. or maybe i was drinking, no even better space aliens made me think it was a Mark III as part of their insidious plan to remake history.... yeah that's the ticket 
PJ2

[TRM]

Well...on the eve of leaving for the AMPS International Show tomorrow...I think this one can be called finished! I am sure I will want to tweak something before it actually hit the tables though! I will snag some better pictures once I get back, I was in a bit of a hurry finishing this and trying to pack!

[panzerjager2]

Awesome work.........

BEST of LUCK...... 


PJ2/Whitney

[TRM]

Thank you PJ!!! I will take all the luck I can! LOL Finishing the packing this morning then we're off and running! Three days of shooting the "poo", looking at kits and builds and oh yeah, painting!

[Leon]

You nailed this one Todd! Looking forward to seeing it in person.

[afvfan]

If that doesn't take gold, as well as having a good shot at the theme award, something's wrong.

[TRM]

Thanks Leon! See you soon buddy!

From initial reports, it seems like I may have underestimated this one a wee bit.

[TRM]

Thank Bob (1) "I love the smell of burning plastic in the morning"!!

Thanks Bob (2) You underestimated? LOL...what happened was a complete shock to me my friend!

[sabre]

Stunning build TRM, I can see why it made such an impact at the Nats.

Oh, I knew it was going to do extremely well as soon as I saw the final display.

[TRM]

Thanks Bob! LOL Funny how critical we are of our own stuff! I forced myself to stuff it in a box the day before we left. Tossed it in the Ramrod the first day and tried to forget about it...LOL It was a really fun show overall. There was around 600 entrants this time! Some brilliant work to be seen! I know Leon took a buch of pics...I took some too...need to break those out at some point...LOL

[wbill76]

Doesn't surprise me at all to see it sweep, very well deserved T!
