Very tidy build you got going here. PE looks great on this.

I've had so many other priority projects I haven't had time to work on this. But I finally got caught up with my warhammer stuff, so tonight I finished the last little bit of this build. Primer and paint very soon.

It was fun to put together, but trying to do more, paint and just generally handling the model seems to guarantee a piece falls off every time. It's not fun.

Yeah, but You'll get th hang of it. I still knock pieces off from time to time .... Hang in there Brotha' !!

Well "completion not perfection" sums up the end result. I just didn't have enough time to devote to it in the end. Also having to sand and re-spray the roof twice from failed camouflage attempts didn't help either. I need to practice that on some scrap...

The decals were horrible. They are very thick and almost completely impervious to micro-sol and micro-set. I had to glue down the edges with PVA to get them to stay in place!

I did some pin washing and shading with a GW black wash, but most of it got covered in pigment. I went with a nice, dirty look to try and break up the big areas of olive drab. Not a lot of color variety in military vehicles, is there?

I also messed up the windshield by getting dul-cote on it. A couple layers of gloss varnish and it's passable, but that is why it looks funny.

Some detail before putting on the roof. It is removable but takes a bit of work to get it on or off. I don't plan on taking it off again..

Nice work Sorien, that turned out fantastic - everything looks nice and dirty, just the way i like it.
