Pushing on with this one and made some decent progress over the week. Dot filter on, panel line wash on and a bit of OPR to make a dusty finish underway. Was very happy with the way the wheels came out (AK Mid east dust) until I added the pigment fixer and the colour has gone a bit yellow. Might have to do a bit of remedial pigment over the top!

Dusting up with oils going well. Using Ammo's "oil brusher" set, they work pretty well and the convenience factor is high!

Should have this done this weekend, then might do a quick build in 1/72 scale, been watching a lot of "Plasmo" videos on YouTube and have been inspired!

Calling this one done. Has not been a fun build but has been instructional in a bit of the weathering techniques, especially the use of oils. The kit is way too over complicated, they could have done the same with less parts and less steps, but there it is.

That turned out great and I am sure you can manage to repair it.
