Here's where I'm at so far with my SU85M. Just done with the base coat.
Here you can see the result of the texturing. I tried to add the casting numbers to the top of the hull. I cut then off a plastic spice lid. They are very small, and couldn't get a very good photo of them. Maybe after a wash and drybrushing they will come up better.

Any tips or advice would be welcome

Lord Glue:
Its coming along nicely. Looks like you've done some fender damage that fits in well with the dinged external fuel tanks. Also looks like you are using the new airbrush over the top of that texturing---looks good.
Fruils on this one???? and is it the DML??
Keep us posted.
