Righ then first up is my Challenger II. It has been sitting around for far to long on account of me not really liking the initial paint job. Gave it a wash of yellow oil paint and then went to work with the white oil paint dotted on and blended. Having completed that I tried a little weathering and geneal dirty up using pigment on the lower parts. This is my first attempt at this and whilst not up to others standards you have to start somewhere I guess. Will continue to muck about with this and add a few little details picked up from photo references and will up date in due course.     As ever ACW. Tim |

Still coming along nicely mate! Just one thing if I may....did you blank off from the inside,the 'holes' on top of the back of the turret? They are in fact the handle recesses for the storage bins.

Well me 'ole mucker, what do you think?  Mind you, to be fair, a little more paint required. See you at Lancing show mate. Tim |
