That looks just great, Wayne. I had a feeling you would beat me to the finish line, and you'll still probably beat me to a running vehicle because I just ordered my Motors and they say it might take them as long as four weeks to get here.

Have a search for m_bergman on Thingiverse, if you’re lucky it will be amongst his 1/100 collections, they have much more detail than the 1/200 scale collections.
Also look through the remixes someone may have made something you’d like at a bigger scale.
If you want to practice on something relatively simple there is a PAK40 on Thingiverse at 1/56, you’d have fun tweaking it to 1/16

Hopefully the red/brown dies down a bit after drying
But i just using various shed and stone paints to die and making it look ragged and camouflaged. Hopefully tomorrow will get it tied down and have the sides rolled up for a good check fit.
It is made from stitching cotton liner and some fancy gauze type material together. Then using twine for the ropes. Hem the edges and paint. More pics to come
