Detail painting all done The extras have all had at least a base coat now I didn't paint the mortar tubes black as they are so tight together it would have looked a mess so I've just painted the tops of the tubes black  |

Blink and you miss it
Slowed down a bit now, been doing a few bits a pieces in the background.
All the stowage is up to Klear coat except the logs but they will be going on near the end so that's cool.
Started a pin wash but the vehicle has gone so dark since the Klear went on I couldn't even see where I had been so I've left it. What I will do instead is lighten some OD and pick out all the high spots even the little tie downs to make them stand out. I'll get a photo when I've done the high spots
I put pigment slurry on the wheels and tracks today, just letting them dry completely before the clean up. Again these wont be going on till the end

Yeah.......... any Klear and varnish coats will darken stuff considerably  |
