Thanks everyone!
Painting this bloke was a lot easier than I expected. I think I need to get some uniform colours too

Nice M24 Philipp.
The hat should be more light khaki.

Thanks Olivier
The hat colour is just a basecoat to get rid of the white primer. I tend to start with a darker colour and then add more lighter shades on top Are the colours on this figure correct?

Thanks again
A few quick notes on the kit:
+Nice details
+Good fit
+Metal barrel
+Reasonable amount of photoetch
+Bonus resin figure
-Lots of flash on the vinyl tracks
-Piece of string for the tow cable
-Fiddly suspension
-Auerstaedt decals not 100% correct
-Decal sheet almost destroyed itself
So, yeah...I'll probably do another one, but not in the foreseeable future. Right now I'm just happy to be done with it
