Really coming along a treat, Monica which shade of green are you using?

first off Russian green over black primer,so it dose darken it,them added some khaki,72.761,to lighten it,then to that mix added aged white to


lighten,again,in the most highest points,


so glad your liking it so far,

 

[tommy1drop]

Thanks Monica, it really does look nice

 

[monica]

ta Tommy hope its of some help for you the colors,

 

[monica]

well have the two halfs of the tracks done,and if I have it right,


I should only need to add in 1 or 2 more links on each end and join


on top of the drive wheel and running wheel,


well I do hope ,will leave for a bit longer and then start to bend the track around,


so I can still remove to paint and put back on,


I quite sure I,have them the right way facing to he front,:rolleyes:


as it never real shows how they sit with the v shape as small being the front and the wider being the back ?

 

[monica]

well as its going to be another hot one today,


I was able to get some time in before I have to go out,oh boo,to both going out and the heat,


have the tracks on,guards,and most of the bits and bobs,the rest after I ,get it all to the weathering


stage,


well hoping you like the progress so far,
