Paintwork is very good, well done :)

Like the smooth battle/no muzzle brake.

Very nice Mr Rad, the oxidised patina over it looks very convincing .

I agree. Such a very realistic metal appearance makes the model look like it weighs 50 pounds!

"It was you the gentleman who wanted to have those super tiny (sadly too tiny for being able to make them) Glycol stencils?"

Hi Rad, Yes, thanks. And am I glad you remembered that. I hope you saved a picture of the Glycol decal with all the small writing because I misplaced mine and can't find in the 'ole reference library' where it came from. If you could send a copy, I'd be most grateful. Glad you liked that one. I had never seen it before or since.

Hi, unfortunately I don't keep that picture anymore... Due to it was way too small I could not use it and I discarded it. Sorry :(
