Well, after weeks of having this thing stare at me in all black on my workbench, mocking me, I had to add the OD. It did not go quite as intended... compressor problems, and finding out that Mission Models paints do NOT airbrush well when highly thinned... but overall I’m good with it so far...

maybe the yellow base for the tiger face tomorrow...

OD looks great to me.
March as one, Don't look back
Odin's sons... Attack!
Unleash hell! Do not repent! Warfare grants us no lament
Let your weapons slash and tear This is no place for fear
Hold the lines! Move as one! In unity our victory's won
Our shields will form a mighty wall
United we shall never fall

Yellow base for the stripes on now....

I think that I need to extend the yellow on the fender areas forward a bit...

Thanks Bruce! OD and Insignia Yellow does make for quite a combination visually. I can’t wait to get the stripes on there...
