Are them wheels & tracks going to be painted in situ or does it all come off?

Everything will be painted in situ Robbo. Right got the camo netting on today using the same method I used on the AIFV, some gauze first then the netting tacked on the top using CA. Very pleased with the look. I'll add pine boughs to the rest of the model when it's almost finished.

Paul you never know mate! Progress again and the camo colours are now on. Tamiya NATO colours where used with a drop of flesh added to lighten slightly. Next will be a careful spray of the camo netting in an olive green before detail painting!

Thanks fellas, today's progress and I've now sprayed the camo netting with a dark olive green. This will get various dry brushes next to add some more depth to it. Most of the detail painting has been done and a gloss coat & decals as well. I have a few more areas to detail paint like the tow ropes and here I find it's easier to paint these over a gloss coat as any mistakes are easy to wash off with water and not harm the colour underneath.
