Good looking beast, Dwight! You've successfully avoided the fad of chipping the paint five layers deep; the weathering is great, and the distressed finish on the numerals is quite attractive.

Thank you for taking the time to look and comment.
I must admit I had my fair share of builds with excessive chipping. 😃 Now I am just trying to relearn the basic weathering techniques especially that I have been off the bench for a very long time.
As far as the markings are concerned, I hand paint them as much as possible. I am very bad with decals. 🤣🤣🤣

Sometimes, a long break is what's needed to recharge the ol' batteries!! |

Wow, Dwight! I'd say your skills have not diminished at all. Your weathering looks spot on. Brilliant work my friend!
