Looking just like one of those CAD drawings Pete.
You have a habit of makeing things look so easy with your "just added a little here and a little there" but the results speak for themselves.

The tyres are a big improvement on the rubber kit ones.

Precision work with the white card.
As it happens I was just looking at DEF wheels for a future project. They do look the business.

DEF are my fav replacement wheels as they are usually a straight swap and the casting is very crisp. The model had a wash last night so primer will be on today at some point.

Cheers mates, Paul, I doubt it mate as I'm working again this weekend but maybe next week! Boots, which Chris would that be? Well with nothing else to do this afternoon and because the primer dried so quickly I've gone and sprayed the camo. Tamiya XF 72 & 73 being the weapons of choice with XF 85 black rubber for the tyres. I then used the supplied masks in the DEF box to spray the wheel centres. As usual tomorrow I'll add fading using tamiya sky.      |

Paul, may be Pete cam build the 1/35 German Torpedo Boat. I think he'll expend a week or so to finish it! Pete, amazing paint work. I never got this finish using Tamiya paints. |

I always use mr hobby levelling thinner and a few drops of VMS slow-mo extender medium mate. Always get a good finish using these with tamiya paints. Paul I need to make up for Brian's lack of building or should I say finishing kits!! The trouble will be deciding what to take! |

Pete, you'll need your own personal table to display your models on in Affligem.  |
