Very nice Adam, have you decided on a paint scheme for it yet ?

Cheers, Lee.

[Ad Lav]

Thanks Lee!

No, Not yet! Need some help in choosing...

Any good schemes in your books?

Let me know if you have anything in mind and I'll take a look through for you bud

Cheers, Lee.

can I ask you what you did to paint and weather your tracks , I'm about to do it myself ,thanks.

[Ad Lav]

Painted them red brown/earth brown with a brush on the low parts.

When dry apply a thinned mix of humbrol sand wash that sits in some of the holes.

Run gun metal over with a cloth.

Thanks for the tip, I will give a try,

Some years ago I bought a pair of Heng Long Metal Tracks for a Panzer 4, they were a lovely shiny silver ,
I headed into "Halfords" they were selling a metal staining product which was easy to apply and to this day the tracks have retained their stain,
It might be worth checking them out if you are darkening Metal Tracks.
