Thank you, although I cannot take full credit for the camo. Scalawag and I did the camo at his house and I did a lot of learning!

Painted and weathered the tracks and some stowage Paul gave me yesterday afternoon.
I see this thread is rather old but had to excavate it.
The tracks material looks and feels like the same as one the Leo kit and this tracks didn't take any paint. Even a light toucheck made it rub and flake off. Did yours last and what was the trick or paint you were using?

Tracks had no issues holding paint - tamiya spray can followed by various washes
Re: Tamiya 1/16 KV1
Hmm. I tried acrylics and enamels and even looking at them makes the paint go off. Strange.
