Carlos this is really coming to life! Way to go!

It was great seeing you at the AMPS Zoom meeting too briefly. I needed that before getting all the preparations done for my trip. Keep this thing going, I am thrilled with the way this looks.

A flat coat, a bit of detail item painting and some last parts to glue on and this one is done.

Really looking good Carlos! What brand of pigments did you use for the tires?
March as one, Don't look back

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 Clint. The tires and wheels were done with oils, not pigments. I used a mix of Yellow Ocre and Titanium White. It turned out a bit more yellow and dark than I wanted, but still looks good enough. I’m gonna try a mix of Titanium White and Burnt Umber on another project sometime to see how that turns out. Hopefully a bit more grayish earth in tone.
