Ola people,
I finally finished the LRDG Chevrolet. After the previous update I applied the wash and some paintchips. I think I won't do a groundwork. Still thinking about this. Anyway, hope you guys like it. Thanks for looking
Dirk

It turned out very nice indeed. The paint and weathering is top notch. I like the way the figure settles into the seat back. Bravo and three cheers

That is one cool looking LRDG Chev. You have certainly given the old kit a fantastic face lift.

Excellent job, those paint chips and the bleached paint are superb. Did you hand paint them or did you use a different technique?


Cheers

Wow! That's very nice. I like how subtle the paint chips and the color is.

Are those the original tyres? The ones Tamiya provides are awfull.

I'm actually thinking of building another one since I gave away mine to my English friend as a going away present.

I've got to find someone who has the replacement tyres though.

Your work is top bro.
