Thanks guys, this is one of those kits you really must build before you shuffle off. Today the primer went down so here's the pic. Now waiting on some paint to arrive for the admiralty light grey.  |

Cheers guys, we'll all my anticipated gear for the model arrived today. First up two smashing RB models buckets, one will be for another build. I've used these before and they are ace. Next the figure from CSM to go with the a/c release, they have bought out three different ones but this was my fav. And lastly the Meng admiralty grey paint. I've already had a test spray of it and the colour looks very good. It also sprayed extremely well through the a/b straight out of the bottle. So my plan is to do some pre shading before the grey goes down and try and leave some of the pre shade showing through!  |

Sorry Pete,just playing catch up on this,and it's a little corker!!!! Might get one of these meself! Gotta say,when we looked at the kit at OT,I don't think I've EVER seen anything so well moulded....Those wheels were superb!!!!! (Could have tried the ole Belgian paint job,in deference to our tame Belgie,Guy???  ) |

Cheers guys, Chris, yes mate those spokes are the best I've ever seen too, who needs the hassle of pe when the kit items are this good? Boots, indeed I didn't know meng produced paints as well. Looking on the bottle it says produced in Spain so I expect vallejo or andrea make it. Here's the figure all made up, I think he looks superb as I like the relaxed pose. I also made up a brass bucket and typically it does not fit the holder! No biggie though as I just used an old plastic one and made a new handle. I've been researching WW1 rations so will make up some to go with the scene i have in mind. Should be getting the pre shade on tonight as well.     |
