That's looking awesome Stik - can't wait to see it done. Are you going to put it on a base?

(My M3 turned up today - OMG what a lot of parts!)

At this time Stuart, no base is planned for this one. Maybe I can come up with something generic.

Don’t fret about the Bradley. I’ve built a couple. It’s typical Tamiya ease of assembly. Painting will be more of a challenge than building. If you approach it like building a bomber with a decent cockpit and other interior areas you’ll be fine.

Thanks Stik - I'm sure it'll hit the bench soon - and I'm sure I'll be seeking lots of advice.

Thanks Mark. Since I have already tried primer here, as a break from my norms, I think that I shall try another new method shortly...

Cool. I'll be looking forward to seeing it. I might even be able to adapt it to my scale.

Since I have not had time to get a good airbrush session in for my next step, here is a nice slideshow of Leopard 1A4s at play in their natural habitat.

I don’t know which I like more, the mud camo or the snow camo... :hmm:
