That does look nice Raoul.

I have been pressing forward but this is as far as it will be by the deadline, Unless there is an extension. My goal is to have it done by the end of this week though. :D

There are a few things I am not happy with. I don't like the direction the fading took on the Priest. May go back and fade with some green to bring the color back. Time will tell. If I dont all I have to do is add some stowage and the ever dreading dirt and grim. :o

Made a start painting the figures yesterday but again I am not over happy with the colors. I think it needs to be more tan. I will try some differenet colors on the guy primed in black first before I start over. Does anyone remember what color Vinnie painted his tanker? It was the same figure I have here that is not painted yet.

Image

Finally something I am happy with so far is the base and some small trees :D :D :D :D Still a long way to go with the base. What you see is just the start of the ground work.

Cracking work gentlemen :)

Raoul - perhaps a little more dirt etc on the inner face of the tracks?
