Looking very good so far Shawn. I like the cover over the windscreen, it's a nice touch. :)

Thanks a lot Vincent and Philipp.

Painted the bed. I decided not to use oil paints like most people do. Instead I used Vallejo smoke 939 and applied several thin layers until I was happy with the results. I then painted all the metal parts German Gray. I am not completely sure how I'm going to proceed. I'm pretty sure I am going to use the hair spray method and apply desert camo over the bed.

Morning Shawn

Lovely woodwork and a different combination to get there

Well done.

Should look good under DAK dungelgelb and well weathered and sand blasted

Thanks Steve.

Hair spray then Tamyia for the base color. I really like how it turned out over the panzer gray, not sure how I like how it turned out over the wood bed. Generic decals used for the instrument panel.

Very nice weathering Shawn! :) The palm trees will surely make for a stunning diorama.
