Afternoon all. A nice little build this, it went together beautifully, virtually no flash, and just a few ejector marks most of which are hidden anyway. I undercoated the whole thing in Humbrol 29 from a rattle can before building, and then brush painted it as I went along. Mostly Humbrol enamels but some acrylics too. Basically whatever paint I had that was the right colour! SCC 2 Service Brown is a mix of Hu 29 and 98, the SCC 14 camo pattern is Revell Anthracite acrylic. The canvas tilt was given a wash of 98 then dry brushed with a mix of 29 and white.
First off the chassis and engine. Don't know why I painted the engine as it's completely hidden on the finished model!
Next the wheels were fitted and the rear body built. It's not glued in place at this point.
Construction finished at this point and painting nearly done. Pin washes and fine details being picked out. I made a few alterations along the way - I cut the windows from the top of the doors as this allows you to actually see the interior, and I removed the cupola from the roof of the cab.
Windscreen made with Glue 'n' Glaze as with the side windows removed the kit part is way too thick. It dried a bit rippley but to be honest no worse than the kit transparency.
