Thanks!

Very nice Vinnie.
Nice article, nice build.

I agree, nice little build and article. Thanks for sharing Vinnie!

Nice build Vinnie

As with Jim's AB41 build review , it seem italeri are really coming on strong.

And thankyou for explaining the oil paint spotting filter method , Ive heard of this before but was never sure exactly how to do it , now i cant wait to try it (on an old kit first though :-) )

nice work there. it made very interesting reading.. I have this kit along with several other early german thingies that should be gray.. I may try your filter technique on one of them it looks interesting...

Very nice article Vinnie, thanks for sharing. I have the same kit in the stock and your article will be very helpful.

Great article Vinnie. Loads of good tips and things to be aware of in advance, and is exactly what is needed for anybody wishing to build this. If a good article means you are inspired enough to want to build the vehicle afterwards, then you succeded! Nice one.

Great article Vinnie. Very nice build, very nice indeed.
Applying filters, using small dots of oil's, I definitely have to try.

Excellent article Vinnie (and excellent 6 Rad too)

EDIT: still on the filter technique:
You can also "cheat" on this using the base colour of the inicial spots according to the type of colour break that you need; meaning if you pretendo to have the top surfaces more "sun burned" white and yellow dots should be more - for areas where there's more darkened colours, reds and burned sienna outnumber the other colours.
This is great to break the monocromatic colours of some craft, vehicles whatever you are working on!

I don't want to change focus on Vinnie's 6 Rad but here are some examples:

Nice article Vinnie, Ive been looking at this kit for a while i love those six and eight rads, also thanks for explaining the filter tech, now i understand how its done.
