Bert, Joe, cheers chaps Bert now that the tracks are on, I can add more grime to the running gear and blend it easier that way

Wasn't expecting you to leave the contrast like this, eventhough one gets a good look at those wheels this way👍

Today I dragged this one back onto the bench . I was really worried about how to get some life into the faded paint job, so after a long thinking period with a pint , I chose my oils and went straight in . I'm quite happy with how this going, but now I have to wait until this first round is dry . Before and After pic

Looks like the pint really worked wonders. Was it a pint of Tankard, or are you too young to remember that advert?

Chaps, the oilage is now done . After watching the film again last night , I went in with some scratching . The front of the tank and the front of the turret look like the film crew, or more likely the Yugoslav army, shot a shed of AK 7.62 rounds at these . In the tunnel scene you can see the scars really well, so I decided to add these with Model Master rubber and a fine brush
