Wow, that looks really good!!! Who makes the conversion? How do you paint a completely finished model? I've tried it recently and used up 2 bottles of paint and still couldn't get the whole model completely covered. I really like the slight weathering.

Hey guys, hi and thanks for taking the time to reply to my build. Sorry about the teething problems. Anyway the colour was achieved by mixing Buff/Deck Tan/ and Sky gray[ Tamiya paint]. Followed with a few filters of varying shades. This was then followed with Mig pigments applied in various forms!, to achieve a very dusty look to the vehicle. A U.S marine will be placed on the engine deck as soon as i get around to finishing it!.. will post a couple of pics when i finish it!....oh the conversion is available from Cromwell models in the U.K......
Cheers
Andy.........
