Here's some of the grey basecoat going on . . . there will be three shades of grey: medium, medium-light, and light.



This picture perfectly shows the color gradation (CM) between the three stages . . . from light to dark . . .

Here is another good picture that shows the three colors being used. Remember the body already has 3 grey shades in the modulation. The tanks in the back have the medium-light shade, and the turret is still in the medium grey shade, and this gives you an idea of the subtlety. I hope you can see it.



Another angle:



And one more:



Let me know what you think, please . . . there's still PLENTY OF MORE WORK to be done on this one!

Here's the body before masking . . . I mixed a little bit of khaki and the med grey and then using the Micron C I added a bit more interest around details and panels . . .

Here's the taping for the cammo, a really random pattern, so let's keep our fingers crossed . . . see what happens . . .

All right, the moment of truth . . . the unveiling of the paint . . . I have to say I like it but now it's just crying out for some chipping and weathering (LOL! A build is never finished!)

Doctor Cranky is salivatin' for this one to get some weathering but I'm going to start the weathering with the chassis and the Zombie crucher/crusher/roller first!

Here are a couple of more pics, hope you won't mind:

Amazing what can be done with a mix of parts and a good imagination, I wouldn't know where to start with something like that.
Looking forward to the weathering, keep it coming.

Thanks, chap. I'm letting everything sit overnight to dry thoroughly and then I will have more tomorrow. Stay tuned in . . .
