It is hanging on Adam, though I will emphasize the "so far" part

I understand completely Woody. I've done it on the Panther and I'm still scared of it
Good to see you back on here too.

I put on the base coat today. I used Ammo Modulation set, mixing a lighter shade using the Base DunkleGelb and the Highlight. I think it's a little too green for my eye but most of it will be covered by white so perhaps it doesn't matter much. We'll see.

Next I think I'll give it a coat of matt for protection then on with the Whitewash camo.
Thanks for stopping by.

The more I looked at the paint job the more I thought it was lacking something. So I gave it some more highlights and I'm much happier now. I also painted the tools and added some decals. I figured that these should be present before the whitewash goes on.

I think I'm ready for the whitewash now

Looks great Vincent!

Can't imagine the crews went to too much effort of de-stowing tools for the whitewash application.

Fantastic finish Vincent, almost a shame to cover it with whitewash

I agree Woody. I thought I should paint them so that the chipping process would reveal the colours of the tools rather than having them left in white.

Well, I've gone his far Philipp, I may as well finish it the way I planned to
