Howell,

I like to see your work, they are examples of constant improvement, you did a great job in painting, weathering and phototaking. Keep up the good work.

Young people like you, Airwarrior, and Andy are key to the future of this hobby.

Thanks Everyone

Having alot of fun on this model I believe now im on Step 6 or 7 working on the windshield now I gotta figure out how to make the grimey windshield with the wiper effect. Ill try a peice of tape cut to the size of the wipers then use a wash.

Rather than a wash which is likely to seap under the tape, mist some dullcoat (laquer) over the taped outside of the glazing. This will give a nice dusty look to the areas you want dirtied while leaving the area somewhat translucent and it'll look just like all our windshields did from November through March!

Ok most of the Kubel is done now. Attached the doors shovel and a few other things still have to do the rolled up top and the front window. For the Window I painted it and scratched it up.
