With the zimmert on I have moved on to the wheels. I hate wheels! I have finished the wheels on one side. They have been painted Tamiya Dark Yellow and I applied the first oil wash of olive green. The hull behind to wheels has been given the same treatment. The other side will be done the same way. Here are some pictures of what things look like. The wash is still drying.

Well I have been doing some detail work to this sow's ear. I been adding some weld beads here and there. I have used some solder on the turret roof and used a hot knife to make one around the edge of the turret. Oh and the wheels are done. Anyway here are some pictures of what I've done. Thanks for looking and comments are welcome.

Looks good Mr. T. If ye don't mind me asking, what did you use to thin the OD for the wash? Curiosity.
