Well how long have you got John.
Na the thing is I saw a 25/17 Pheasant bring towed by a Quad on a road in Sicily and it had a rather unusual camouflage. So I thought I'm having some of that! After a bit of background work I found me way to which colours where the most likely. These where so ordered over the from Track pads.
Then I found noticed that the quad was a Morris C8 and not a Chevy, which the
Tamiya quad is. The paints did not turn up and they are presumed lost in the post. (Andy at Track pads is sending some more though). So I painted the quad and gun as per the destructions. It's not that I am not pleased with the paint job. It's just not the one I wanted to do so I am a little bothered by it.
A Ha! the good news is that John is now going to have to come all the way to Denmark to give me a slap. I tried to figure out the masking for the MM camo and failed BIG TIME. No paint was sprayed dont worry.
So I chucked the masks in the bit and grabbed a hairy stick. Well the real ones would of been painted up in the field so why not....
It looks sort of like this at the moment.

Oh I made a new tarp for the roof in the Quad. Its made out of heavy aluminium foil. Just laid it in place of the photo. It needs sticking own and a few tie downs added.
The holes in the roof are to stick the spare wheel in. I was also thinking of adding a 'roof rack' as some of them had one.
