its all gone streaky - hoping the green (thinned very low pressure) will tie it all together... that should be tomorrows job

thanks both
Star Decals - Hungarian Uprising - applied. Supposed to represent a Hungarian Army tank in Revolutionary hands. I want to put a white stripe the length of the tank (usually down the center so not sure it will work with the lights) and may try to hand paint a slogan as well but that can wait. Still not sure on the skirts but they are being painted up anyway. If I dont use them I may use them as tests for rust weathering

not done any modelling for about 8 months but finally got round to it last week... Matt coat on, detail painting started.... don't think I will do oil streaking this time around but happy for you all to try to persuade me:

so an early start on Good Friday and got more done than I expected before church.... wheels & tracks now on (tracks rusted, rust on spare tacks and little around the body) with cotton buds holding the upper track on the return rollers while little touches of glue dry (have noticed some links not 100% aligned unfortunately)... general dusting tomorrow I think...
only one question remains and that is if I put the side skirts on or not... will see before dusting (I think they hide a few messes around the lower hull
