Good evening everybody.
A small update, painted the bonnet!!
WOW: So what you say. I don't blame you, small steps, fitting in with everything else and I still haven't painted my shed yet. Anyway a picture speaks a thousand whatsits:-
I will varnish/lacquer the bonnet and store it safely until the rest catches up and I can actually present a complete model on this forum in the not to distant future(this year).
Have a good weekend.

PS The weathering on the tyres and wheels, is real soil/earth, not paint

Number one fan here. Nice to see so much detail on the Bonnet/Hood, "fake dust not rust" the order of the day
After all the panels are alloy weren't/aren't they?
Ok, apparently not on the model.
Ps love the light mud on the tyres and wheels.

Re: The life and times of No 28.
Good evening folks.
I have had to wait awhile for the headlight lenses to arrive, so was able to spend the afternoon pottering with the LED's and the wiring. Also catching up with the "TankFest" stream too.
I have used watch lenses fitted over the light to get that rounded effect of the headlamp, I haven't scored them yet.
Please note, If you are going down the road I am, you will require a larger badge to fix the grill on. nudge nudge wink wink
As always take care and have fun.
