Thanks Team
Here's the figure - not 70s I'm afraid -Masterbox from the Allied forces set.
Total prep time to carve out the bottom of the trousers, remove seams and prepare the head - approx 4 hours Shawn - I know how you feel. Figures Really slow you down.
Nice figure though - I'm imagining this is a war-time Aussie version of Woody
Thoughts turn to a base and it's going to be a small one to keep it all tight...
Vallejo MA Light Stone 61 having been sprayed on over hairspray
Light to moderate chipping to depict quite a well used desert vehicle
And my favourite bit - decals - which always bring the vehicle to life

I'm with Philipp, the chipping of the paint looks great. Really realistic in how it has chipped/peeled.
The picture with the paint freaked me out a bit, the kit looks really small next to the paint and for a second I was thinking "Wait a minute, is this 72nd!? "

Very nice Rob,
Very Nice Indeed
It really does hold up well for a 70's kit,
great work on the chipping too, I am finding out, it is quite a "dark art"
Can't wait for the weathering and figure too
Very nice work

Beautifully done Rob!
I really like the Aussie driver, even if he's slightly off topic .
Best regards

Oh the memories. This was another one of my early armor kits. Your's is much better looking.

Thanks Fellas
Work ground to a halt. We had a CQC inspection at work - all hands to the pumps - solid work these last 2 weeks
But - nearly there....
