Thanks guys.

It's been so long since I did any modelling let alone military, that I screwed up by clear coating and adding the decals before doing the pre-shading and chipping!!!!!! DOH!!!!

So now i've matt coated and now need to see if I can spray the pre-shading fine enough to avoid covering the decals!!!

Oh buy, what a bozo!!!!

Wasn't going to do the pre shading tonight but thought I'd better get it done rather than let it play on my mind. Looks like I may be able to make it work.

Next up will be to spray more Desert Yellow in the 'boxes' then spray the same colour over the pre-shading. That will be the make or break methinks!!! Long Range Desert Group  - Page 2 1578238153

Thanks for the confidence boost guys.

Well, it's not as subtle as I would like it but it should look OK when the weathering proper goes on. At least I hope so. LOL

Awesome work! The shading/painting is stunning, can't wait to see it weathered.

Thanks for the kind words guys.

I did some very light streaking but it was so light, it barely shows in the photos.

I followed this up with some AK Africa Dust effect. I'll see what it's like when it's fully dry and decide wether it needs more or some taking off.

It's all a bit glossy at this stage but will improve greatly when dull coated.

Thanks Gary.

I applied the dull coat but now it looks like it needs more Africa Dust. Long Range Desert Group  - Page 2 4039365958
