Me too! Currently sat waiting for opportunity to get back to it. It's got its first coat of green so it currently looks like a standard duck.

I'm pondering how I might get a bit of "nose art" on it. Specifically:

Main colours down. Some more bits and pieces to add as well as weathering.

Excellent work, the colour scheme looks fantastic!
Don't let ageing get you down, it's too hard to get back up

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.  Revelling in numptytism.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed, badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry.

I was pondering trying to find some suitable decals for this for a north africa lorry but decided I'd just use the decals that came with the kit and didnt get around to trying to produce the nose art at this scale. So a somewhat half-arsed whif into a desert duck.

Before and after weathering, decals and transparencies


rest of the "beauty shots"

Still pretty good (for a half-arsed version).  :thumbsup:  ;)

Looks nice  :thumbsup:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

I like it!
In want of hobby space!  The kitchen table is never stable.  Still managing to get some building done.
