Great progress. That paste looks interesting. Mean looking little vehicle - and it floats!
Thanks,

Very cool Stik! I have some of that "non-slip" stuff. I haven't used it yet though.

Re: 8 Wheeled Duck Hunter, LAV_AD
A bit of progress on this one during my days off...
I applied a second coat of the non slip paste to all areas previously coated
here are a couple of close ups to show how it looks once dried
then since I was going to be airbrushing on some CARC/NATO Green on the turret interior areas, I also hit some of the decking areas with the excess to get a good idea of how it looks under a coat of paint....
Outer surfaces of the hatches before & after paint
and the rear top deck area... I really like how it looks once painted...
lastly I got some areas of the turret interior painted in the CARC/NATO Green that would be highly visible through the turret windows. the upper center portion I've seen in some video footage, but the lower portions are just an educated guess.
more to come by the end of the week...

A lot of neat stuff going on here!

So what is the stuff you used for the non-slip?
