Tom and Clint, thank you.
Clint, that camo scheme was only used in West German during the 70’s.

Thanks, bud. I’m going to get a tree tomorrow. Spending so much time at home makes me at least want to celebrate the holidays more so than usual. Look forward to more.

Thanks Mike!
I finished up the camo today. Then went back with a brush and hit the few areas where the masked areas didn’t quite meet up properly and the base color came thru where it should not.
Behold the MASSTER (camo)! I really do like this scheme!
Next up all the detail painting before weathering and decals...

Thanks guys! It’s getting there...
Today was detail painting: seat cushions, shovel & axe, radios, etc.... mostly using different ODs for some tonal variety.
