Wow that's amazing - looks real. Would love to see a quad or US HT on the forum. Rare indeed!

Re: Quad 50 cal Paintjob
Thank you all for the positive input, i am pleased you like the quad so far, Here's the vehicle which it's going to be fitted too, i am tasked with weathering and adding some paint detail, i will post before and after due to the rarity of u.s. Halftrack posts on here and it is nice to see one, once in a while, regards simon.

Re: Quad 50 cal Paintjob
Thanks Phil, yes it is nice to see the Halftrack, there was a beauty being built by volker pfiester on here, with some lovely work done, but just came to a Halt and never seen again, i wonder how it turned out, Here's the first of the weathering coats applied, just a bit of sponge work followed by some Matt black thinned on the hinges, seams and any dark areas, then a little flat earth colour to represent dust, light dirt in the obvious places, easy affective and very little cost. regards simon.

Re: Quad 50 cal Paintjob
One more stage on the paint job, added the stencil Markings, numbers, nothing specific, and carried on with a few highlights and mud splashes, regards simon.

Re: Quad 50 cal Paintjob
This is the last of the U.S. Halftrack/ quad paintwork, i placed the sdkfz 7 for some scale size and two vehicles not seen often together, The u.s. Halftrack is a great vehicle and i would like one, not to Heavy either. regards simon.
