It is looking good and once some paint goes down the details should become more visible.
March as one, Don't look back
Odin's sons... Attack!
Unleash hell! Do not repent! Warfare grants us no lament
Let your weapons slash and tear This is no place for fear
Hold the lines! Move as one! In unity our victory's won
Our shields will form a mighty wall
United we shall never fall

Thanks, Floki, and here's some of that paint you were mentioning.

It may seem like there are too many wheels here, that's because I'm starting up on the Tamiya Aircraft Fuel Truck now. I used Hataka WW II Tank OD, and a Tamiya mixture of German Grey, Flat Black, and Flat Brown for the rubber. First Hataka I've used and it seems pretty nice.

Looking really good! You going to make a full diorama? Check out IanE on youtube, I learned a lot about figure painting from him.

The bomb truck looks great! That’s a fine aircraft support group that you’re building up there! :hmm:
