Congrats on the new scores Tony, I'll be looking forward to seeing all these built. As for a loan, well; I'd love to but not today. As for eating, it's overrated; besides, you ate yesterday.
Happy birthday once again! Enjoy the new presents.

Hope you're ready for color because here it comes, Right or Wrong?  ?      
Being a rivet counter for the day O.D. is one of those colors that I don't think there really is a Right Or Wrong?
Oh Well it's paint Tony lee  |

OD seems to be a matter of interpretation.
Looks right to me, Unk!!

Thanks Tony lee

While watching the Indy 500 I installed the mud guards front and back,the markings as well as the wheels and tracks. Last night I coated the right front sprocket with a brown wash and it changed the color as expected,more brownish.
Not a better day can be had than watching great racing and building models

OK I sealed in the markings and while that was drying I got to thinking about the other brands of OD that I had and Vallejo Model Air US Olive Drab seemed to be more brown than the others so what I did was mix a 80/90% thinner to color and just sprayed a dusting coat not real heavy because my fade was getting weak. To the eye it did add a tinge of brown to the OD but the camera and lights make it appear more green than it is.  
I'm satisfied with it for now. Tony lee |

Well,since every manufacturer had different takes on OD and different shades in the factories themselves you're basically ok with any of the OD's unless of course you are doing a specific vehicle. What you have there looks very nice to me!!
