And did the magistrate believe you ? 

Yep..I had photo evidence   

  

Half way through the track links!

Tease

No I'm not - I'm just informative!

Pretty much!

But you forgot the "Click, click, drop, swear, search, swear, find, swear, glue" segment (at least one per sprue, so far).


4 sprues of 38 track links each. 2 done. Having a break tonight but back at it tomorrow.

Track links are all constructed & off the sprues.

In the process of masking up for paint sessions, which will hopefully occur over the next few days.

 

Looking forward to it

Same   

Three colours down on the hull, two more to go.

Track guards & splash-guard(?) will be done separately, so that masking is a bit easier.

Four colours!

Quote from: Old Wombat on July 02, 2024, 09:11:16 AMFour colours!

So, after all the painting-masking-painting-etc. &, apparently, "teasing", the colour scheme is done.

It requires some touch-ups & I'm not completely happy with it, but happier with how it turned out than I expected to be a couple of days ago, so I'll keep it.

I'll just use Kit's 2nd Law (Anything can be explained in the backstory) & I'll state that it's an experimental scheme which wasn't adopted due to the excessive requirements for paint colours & time required to apply it.

Anyway, photo's, so you can judge for yourselves:













Hope that satisfies the curiousity.


Now, it's on to the track guards & splash board before going over the errors & fixing them up.

But that's a task for another day, possibly even not until next week. We'll see what path Life takes me down.



PS: Do I outline the colours in black, or not??

Looks good as is.

 

Definately an outline.  I think black would be too stark.  Maybe Dark Brown or Dark Grey.

Yes thankyou. I do like this 'tween the Wars armour

Agreed, perhaps Admiralty Blue/Grey ?
