Spud, T and Rob, many thanks for the advice guys! 

Lucky me I found a bottle of Tamiya Buff in the stash  ;D. Now this color can be used as a DY variation as well so decided to go with that one

And then the fun began, chipping time!!!

I must say, I had really good fun, next up are the wheels and gun, but that's for another day  ;D

Cheers
