All I can say is DAMN, you are a brass folding master. It looks great. I hope I can do half as much when I finally get to mine.

It's no final color, but I will work with toning further.
Now I continue painting works:

First, I covered this Vallejo black primer. Than painted Nato black color by Tamiya. At the end I used Tamiya masking tape and painted Dark iron color (Tamiya again).

Id love to build that beast but working with gluing all those stupid center guides would cause me to stop and end up throwing the modle back in the closet or throwing it out unfinished

Dmitry,
Impressive detailing work and your paint job really does it justice!
Green looks also interesting, what paint did you use?

Cheers,

Thank you, Greg))
I used Tamiya XF-62 Olive drab with 20% of XF-57 Buff.
But color on my fotos is not so correct as really. On final fotos I'll try make normal color resolution.
