Looking very very good.

The resin parts are a little warped and take some getting into place correctly.
It does say it is for experienced modellers!

Hi Zak,
Looking good.
Nice to see you changed real life decorating to small scale decorating now.
Will be good to see finished article.

After a major airbrush strip and clean I found that the jet has snapped off, I have replaced this now and hope all will be ok.

Otherwise it will be difficult to paint the bedroom with it!

Never you mind what I paint the bedroom with.

Here is my completed 1/35 scratch built 9.2 inch howitzer with figures from Masterbox.

Hi Zak,

Thank you kind sir.
Sorry about the hairs(?) on the first two pictures, they can't be mine.

I thought you had been doing a Malcolm, you know like painting canopy frames with a 1/2inch brush!!

Must be planted evidence by you to show you have been decorating....................................

A great piece of work, how did you achieve the chequer plate effect?

I usually use Slater's embossed plastic card in tread or chequer plate pattern(4mm), but I had run out, this was engaved/scratched out with a scriber on a larger sheet and then cut up.

thanks and well done that man!

More details and painting on the Mk1 Gun Carrier.

While I watch the paint dry and think about what to scratch build I think I may be side tracked into a German A7. This is the Tauro kit.
