Hi Leon, this is a bummer indeed, but hopefully things will work out. And if not, it's like Andy said: looks like some dust, so all is not lost in any case ^^
Cheers

Hi Leon that sucks mate , your build was looking awesome but tbh from the pics it doesnt look that bad to me..... I feel it can be saved . Try a couple of things before go stripping ( the tank that is  ) .... a dark wash maybe to pop the detail again over the white hue ..... even pigments and stuff ..... all might not be lost ..... definately change what you are using for the dull coat tho.

What a bugger! is the coating frosty looking? i.e grainy to the touch? if so I would just strip it and re spray. If not maybe re glossing with something like klear would rectify it or just use it as a paint fading stage and add some weathering over the top.

Yep, patience won out on this one Leon! Dust wash/coat on the lower hull and such helps tie it all together. Almost done!

Make sure you at least include a foot-stool for the commander to stand on given the height of that cupola! Other than that, I'm out of suggestions for you Leon. |

Is this vehicle based on the same chassis as any of the other Chinese stuff? If so, you might be able to find pics of the interiors of one of those?
