Gary- Well here it is skidding into the finish line. I went with gray. I will still try doing some weathering tomorrow. Hopefully its good enough for the end.
I have built the IBG 1/35th scale Otter; a few accuracy issues around the doors and the driver hinged visor panel being too long and the fenders a smidgen too short in vertical height (and 1/48 scale pioneer tools!) The mortar tube is the post war truncated cone Dutch version, not a straight tube. With some TLC it comes out quite well. Not sure if the 1/72nd scale has the same issues around the doors and visor but the difference in the fender would unlikely be noticeable.
For my build I just sliced out a section of the door, repositioned the hinges and added a strip in the bottom of the door opening to raise them to the right height. Same for the visor:
Gary- I got them uploaded.
A lot of nice stuff has been posted.
Awesome rail gun Shell Bush. Would love to try and build it. But, no where to put it. Thats what keeps me away from choppers also.

Do what I did and put yourself a cot in the basement. Your bed is probably big enough to hold the model even if you are married, and your wife/SO will appreciate that it doesn't snore or pass gas during the night.
