Mornin' all...
Just been notified that the care package containing my fave airbrush dusting colour is "onboard for delivery" today 😎
So a slight change of plan has happened (more of an interruption to the plan): I'll use the dust colour to finishing the 4stalled on the paint line vehicles and then put the ICM King Tiger's engine deck grilles (also in that package) , onto the KT and get it camouflaged and decalled, then weather it tomorrow morning before continuing with the Jaggy.
May decide to do a kit (combination of two kits actually) that's been nagging at me for a while (ever since I got the second kit ! 😖🤯) before I git going on the second Jaggy as well - we'll see - think I've about had enough of Pz/StuG III and Pz/JgPz IV variants and all their roadwheel tyres for the moment actually.🤬
... As I said, we'll see 🤔🙄

Cheers Folks 👍
The ICM King Tiger has copped its engine deck grilles and a host of little greeblies I'd left off it as well as its tools and tow cables and its next stop is the paint shop for some camo and its markings, then it'll join the other 4 in the queue for weathering. 🙄
the next victim will be the combination job, these are the two kits involved.. 🤫
The idea is to get a better, more accurate Bishop than is currently on the market, by combining the Tamiya hull and chassis with the Dragon turret.. it should be easy, the Tamiya "Vally" chassis didn't give me any problems when I built my Valentine.🥱

Cheers Folks ! 👍
Stay tuned, I've had a busy day today, the 4 that needed inal weathering touches are done and the King Tiger is camouflaged (paint still drying on it !) 🥱
Only got to get the Jaggy L/70 across the line and painted (should be ready for the paint shop tonight methinks, it'll get painted and decalled tomorrow and weathered with the KT over the weekend, then I can get going on the Bishop.. That's the plan anyway 🙄🤔
After that I'll probably start on the other Jaggy and a StuG of some description, as to which StuG, I'll letcha know when I decide, there's a couple of options I may go with (one of 'em anyway) 🫨

KT has camo, now ready for decals and weathering plus a tweak or two 🤔
Same for the Jaggy L/70 (A) ....🥱
After them's dun, I may/might/could/possibly would/should (Cross out all that ain't got nuttin' to do wiv it) 😖🤯 Don't really feel like anything allied at present, so the Bishop may well be a non-starter for the moment 😖🤫

Hot day today, too hot to go outside 🤯
So I decided to start the Tamiya StuG IV... BUT I forgot how easy the old Tamiya kits go together.. 😆
So what did everyone do today ?

Cheers Folks 👍
I forgot how easily and well the Tamiya and Italeri kits are to assemble. 😆
Think I might stick with those two brands til xmas or thereabouts, I've got quite a few of them in the stash, so they may as well get built 😎

Only because my new jacket has its sleeves laced up down the back and I keep falling over trying to take it off ...😋😵💫
StuG IV and Pzkpfw IV J now have their base camo colour (Tamiya dark yellow 2 Acryl), on 'em and are drying... 🥱
Going to have me lunch and then see/decide wot's next... 🤔

Tamiya StuG IV is ready for markings. Attempted pte-fading trick seems to have worked (mostly) 🤔
Next stop markings and into the weathering queue, along with the ICM King Tiger and the Tamiya JgPz IV L/70 (V) 🙄
Tamiya Pz IV J (early) still waiting for its camo. 🥱
Sorry re the radio silence, been a bit busy on other matters of late 🤬
