Thanks guys.
Ian - took two coats of paint to get a good enough finish. I think others could easily do a better job but then again, I'm not all that experienced with air brushing.

It looks great for not being that experienced with an airbrush. Keep practicing, you'll master it in no time.

Got some colour down on the arms and body. Bit of tidying up and then time for decals. Hope you like it  Colour looks spot on for this one Tommy, great choice buddy |

Thanks duke, Boots and Steve.
Doing the colouring in now. Will take a bit of time, though. Lots of pipes to do.

I think I should have put the rubber pipes on after the painting. It’s making me cross eyed. Can just do a bit at a time then need a break, but slowly getting there. using nato black for its grayish colour.  Looking quite good but it sure is a pain. |

That looks great Tommy.........must admit i probably would have gone with the `pipes on after painting` route  |

Tommy you're as bad as I am  . If there is a tricky route for a build, I will find it and go that way . Looks like you have it sorted though  |

Thanks guys. Very nearly finished. Should get it down tomorrow.
Maybe best to do first so they have been primed. I am thinking the primer will protect the rubber so better in the long run.
Who knows?

A bit of silver paint and decals and this is now really going somewhere. Got a very good feeling about this.  |
