Oh wow! I thought I'd responded here. Awesome job! Yeah, that is a fun and quick build; I did two of them myself.
Looking forward to seeing this in paint!

Most impressive! Is that a dark brown wash on this? I did a lighter brown wash and dusted mine.
Keep it coming man!

The pigment looks like it should give a really good coverage but as thick and dark as it looks it is very opaque. It needed thinning but with my first attemps it went very gloopy and then lumpy!! I persevered with distilled water which wasn't too bad but many coats were required the last one leaving it looking like it had had a wash. I quite like the effect so left it. NO more Humbrol acrylics though!! |

Nice little build Jed. What country would this be from ? Thanks Robbo. This is built by Thales of Australia. Canada has quite a few I believe. |

Canada has some? I should try to get one and see if I can build it and paint it in Canadian markings...
