Re: Tamiya Leopard 2A6 Desertised...
Waiting for a break in the weather to get the upper hull painted. Don't think I'll get time to start he turret until the weekend.

Upper hull painted!
When it's dry tonight I shall fix her to the lower hull and attach necessary wires/screws.
Ran out of paint! Gone through two big humbrol dark yellows

Thanks Paul
I quite like it in desert colours, shows off the lines a bit better, and the NATO scheme is a bit over done.

Thanks Kiaser - I let the NATO green show through a bit underneath so it's not a massively thick coat of yellow.
Off to get some more paint so I can start the turret - requires the lower turret half to be painted first as its screwed to the rotation and lower hull.

Sorry double post

Does look good, may do the Canadian desert version. But for now it's staying desert yellow until it's finished

Cool are you going to attempt the baracuda Camo netting ?
Re: Tamiya Leopard 2A6 Desertised...
Yep - Paul (scalawag) got some decent stuff but it was £15 a sheet... may try scratching some stuff.
