A bit more progress today. I have now given it a quick blow over with brown and I'm pleased with the results, next masking and the two shades of green, or do I just do it freehand?

It's a simple pattern so I have gone for freehand.

First green now applied.

Hi guys

Sorry but due to job hunting and an unexpected re-introduction to an old hobby, I have not had time to progress as fast as I would have liked with this build.

Normally I would just rush the finish, but I really enjoy the detail in this kit and want to give it the finish it deserves.

So it saddens me, to have to claim this as a no finish.

Regards

No worries mate, life has a habbit of throwing a spanner in the works.

Good luck with the job hunting. :lol:
