It’s coming along very nicely. I don’t think anyone is ever really happy with the first iteration of camouflage (at least I count myself in that group) despite others telling me it looks fine.

Thanks for sharing.

Thanks to the 1st of May, which was a public holiday practically everywhere here in good ol' Europe, I had some extra time to sit at my bench and actually doing something in a slow pace (no hurrying what so ever).

Work on the wheels; first some dry-brushing, then two different oil-washes, some Ammo MIGs pigments (mixed with Ammo MIG's Pigment fixer, wonderful stuff)

I attached the wheels on the left side, did not even use cement, just pushed them in place and they are quite firm.

Some touch-ups were made afterwards, especially were the paint has come off...
Hmm, priming was done, using Mission Models black primer... :hmm:

Have not decided yet, if I want to use the "side skirts" on this build..

Your weathering really made all that detail pop on them road wheels
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
