Thanks Philipp, Vincent and Steve
The wheels arrived....
They have very fine tread though the attachment points are disapointingly wide so that large areas of each wheel have filled-in tread.
Thanks for looking

Hi Rob
Panzer putty for the camo?
Looking the part, nice work on the soft top too
Is it a 50/50 mix of Khaki, hemp?
nice work

Nice work Rob, particularly like the tilt.
Thanks to the German Postal workers being on strike I'm still waiting for my kit to arrive and yes it is all your fault

Anoter great paint job Rob.
And the bas what can I say about that base "Just brilliant" I got some of that rug stuff several years ago and always wondered how I could use it. Well thanks to you I now know.

Thanks Fellas
Final details.
I take back all I said about the wheels - they turned out Nice
The rear tarp window is Krystal Klear. It Juuust stretched
The tarp had some very light oils applied to give some depth
I sprayed some very diluted Tamiya buff which is about the extent of the weathering
And so final pics go to Gary for the Gallery
Here's the inspiration pic. I obviously didn't go for the radio boxes
And finally.....
That's my second finished for the Group build - see if I cant get the BRDM done
Closedown - Summary
Revell Series 3 Landrover: The tarp needs some work and the wheel tread is poorly detailed but I was quite surprised how well this came out. Fit is good and surface detail very acceptable for such an old kit. Highly recommended.
Accurate Armour Resin Wheels: Are nicely moulded and really do set the model off.
Paint: Vallejo Model Air
Weathering: Tamiya Buff (well diluted and sprayed in very small layers. Mig Ammo Europe Earth to the wheels applied as a wet water slurry and then rubbed off with a cotton bud
Thanks for looking

Another superb piece of work Rob. I love the camo scheme and the base looks so realistic.
Well done.
