Solo,

Very nice start. Looks like you've soldered the photo-etched front fender parts? Great job on the zimmerit. What product did you use to replicate the zimmerit . . . looks true to scale. Your off to a good start on the base color. Will you be adding more colors?

Hey Eddy,

I use the Voyage-model's PE, and soldered the front fender, Voyage-model's HKT kit is old and lot's of mistake one. I made zimmerit use the Tamiya Zimmerit Tools and A small PE in the Voyage's kit, and with Tamiya EXPO putty.
I will add some layer of different Yellow on the steel surface and other different Yellow and grey or dark grey on the Zimmerit. and make them looks different.

Solo,

Thanks for the reply. It's very difficult to obtain the Tamiya epoxy putty, can't seem to find it anywhere? Looking forward to seeing more progress on your build.

Solo,
very nice build. As mentioned before you have done a great job on the zimmerit. With the paint on it looks very realistic. Waiting for your next pics.
