Work has stalled a little over the weekend, but I should have more done by tomorrow.

Daz,

If I'm not mistaken, a slightly wigglier camo demarkation?

I did attempt a bit of wiggle, yeah, but even after all these years I'm no good at it!

I might be better trying it on larger models.

Decals are on. Some minor bits need painting and a bit of weathering needs doing, but she's just about there!

Whatever you decide, but I think that even modest 'wigglies' make a difference. Looking good!
