Hi all campaigners,
I thought better to open a new topic as the official thread becomes to be quite long ! Martin, I hope I won't be disqualified for that
I posted a new series of pics of my Tuna Boat interior. Here is the driver compartment. Other to be seen in the Campaign gallery.

No no seperate threads are fine! I do the same thing! The official thread is more for small updates or discussions/questions about the campaign, not really about showing your progress....

Hi all campaigners
here is my latest update to this campaign.
I started painting the interior. The central benchs are still missing as the turret. This should be addressed to this week-end.
Other pics in the campaign gallery.
Comments welcome as usual.

Olivier, Looking good so far. The interior color looks off to me though. It may just be the photos or lighting, but it looks too light, almost white. Here is a good pic of the Seafoam Green interior color.

Here are two shots I got from Scale Modelling of Hong Kong. Maybe they will be good reference for your paint work.

Thanks for the pics Gino and Argrillion.
They will help to add more details.
As far as the color is concerned, I used Tamiya Sky but Gino you're probably right, the light conditions in which I shot the pics weren't good. I'll try in daylight.
