Also, don’t change a thing about that green. Not one thing. You’ve nailed it.

Thanks... I just need to do some touch ups on the areas that were affected by my fix on the gunners seat.

I was able to wrap up building the crew figures yesterday...
Painting them will probably be my biggest challenge...

I just started painting figures myself. It is indeed a challenge. But it isn’t insurmountable.

Figures are something I need to get consistent with in my technique. I don’t do them often enough to get that yet. When I was regularly, I can do pretty well, but when I have long intervals..
it’s a case of revisiting the learning curve...

Me too Kari! Thanks for the encouragement. We have rain in the forecast for most of my days off this coming week, and my bike is in the shop for a tune up...

Very nice gun, Carlos! The figures should really add some dynamics. Painting figures is not my bag of tea so no helpful tips that I can offer except... go for it!

Really cool assembly work of the figures, Carlos! Excited to see the transformation into their final forms with your painting skills! All the best.

John, Bruce, thanks for the votes of confidence on my figure painting skills. I know I can make them look decent. I just want them to look better than decent. We shall see what I can actually pull off.
