Many thanks for the kind words fellas! Cee Bee - Im thinkin they need to start this on the assembly line in Germany NOW! Jeff - It is Tamiya Primer Surfacer. Not sure why it looks dark in the pics. The Nato Black i used for the base coat looks nearly black in these pics but has infact a Grey/Green tint. Oh well... Base coat! Setting this aside for awhile. Gonna concentrate on the Tiger and Sherman, but the Leo.....she be back!

Gary's nightmare is the Kiltutu not making it back from the dry-cleaners and that won't fit on the barrel....... Dicky do you mean this garment here Looks to me that no dry-cleaner would even dare screw up this order Paul

Well sprayed GB. I know what you're saying about the NATO black. It does have a green tone. I use it for the rubber on my roadwheels.

Dicky do you mean this garment here Looks to me that no dry-cleaner would even dare screw up this order Paul Paul, thats amazing you posted a pic of my favorite Kiltutu. Infact thats the camo pattern im gonna use on the Leopanther! lol Thanks for all the great comment fellas, it really been a blast and got my Mojo on full blast now!!! Gonna set it aside awhile now but ill get back to it. I added some tamiya gloss to the Nato black and im guessing thats why it looks so black. I just might do a very thin dark grey misting over it as a bit of a tweak. Black isnt really the base i was looking for, that why i used Nato black. Ill sort it out soon enough. Now....its Tiger Time!!!

I think I would go with some type of geometric pattern. Like small rectangles, with T and L shaped blocks with different colors maybe.
