Bags are from value gear in Australia :D
Those stowage items in that set are awesome. I got a mixed set of rolled tarps & crates, best idea I've had in ages !!

Looking at the example in the picture though, I reckon that one's made from the real thing ;)

Thanks guys :D

Must be the quality of my painting and weathering - it is a very well moulded bag. I'll be doing to decals again tomorrow with Paul in the morning. Then collecting my mig weathering washes/filters from Paul and off home to finish it :D

Decals on thanks to Paul - my first set went almost see through which is a shame as they were the big yellow '25'.

Collected my mig washes from Paul whilst I was there.

Pin wash tonight then filter/wash after that.

Spent this evening doing detail painting and pin wash using various paints and pigments. Pin wash done using Mig track wash.

Exhausts rusted and oil/grime stain added.

Transformed the the tank with the camo Paul did.

Hopefully I'm doing it justice with the rest of the painting and weathering.

I'd be a nervous wreck trying to back up what Mr Scalawag had done 8O
You'll be right mate, just 'giv-er' ,its a KV-1 and as such more of a farm implement than Mercedes :haha: :haha:
Got to say, the pattern sure is a nice change from model-T Ford standard concept any colour you like as long as its Russian 4BO Green :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:
