Thanks Mark, but I've slopped it up a bit (hmm, maybe too sloppy? 
) 
The Inspector approves of this M8 Greyhound in the Ardennes, December ,1944, sloppy or not!
Thanks to Darrel for a long and enjoyable campaign!!

Hello,
Learned today that "waldo is a genus of small marine clams in the family Galeommatidae", which is good reason or excuse for choosing Industria Mechanika's Waldo for this group build
It's a resin kit of small airborne boat with quite a lot of photo etch, wooden deck and decals. Just opened the box:
I like how you think. Would look perfect with some Live Resin's G3A3's on board, alternate reality for the win!

Since I suggested this campaign here is my entry, a Lindberg Dodge Charger Super Bee. A charger was a term for a Knights war horse and of course the bee is an insect.
I hope to have it finished by the deadline.

Daniel,
The pre-shading is going to look great when this is done. I'm amazed at how steady your hand is. My pre-shading looks more like zig-zags.

Did I post this? Maybe not. I declare this done. Trumpeter's Piranha wasn't bad but there were fit problems and plenty of flash.

Hello,
Progress over the last couple of weeks:
The tracks came on last. I counted close to 400 parts to build just the tracks as each of the guide horns have to be glued on. Anyways, am happy with the results.
Next was the three-color scheme. I've used rattle cans -- Tamiya Light Sand, a generic red primer from the DIY store, and finally topped it off with Tamiya Field Gray -- it looked greenish to me so I thought I'd give it a try.
Crossing my fingers that any bleeding can be easily fixed.
