My major assembly has been completed on the Tamiya Sd.Kfz. 7/2,with the armored cab.Now I will give it a coat of Dark Yellow.I saw a photograph of some in Rome all yellow,so this will be my basis.
I used some eduard PE on it,making it a corduroy purse out of a Sow's ear.Not quite up to Silk purse standards.. :-)

After I took this picture,I sprayed the raw sienna.
This is the connection to a wooden panel in a basement window of my house.The brushless motor is under the "flowerpot"on the outside of the panel.
And this is the connection to the back of the booth.It works very well.

The track are secured to the first roadwhell top with super glue,then a "wedge" of tissue is put on topto force contact.It works quite well. (++) (++)

Good looking model, and interesting spray booth. I think you're probably up to at least a rayon purse...
