You are a brave man Karl...I couldn't or wouldn't do that to my airbrush and finally decided to add the Mr surfacer with a brush with the bristles cut short ...but people have done it and I'm sure it'll come out fine . Did you cover the back part of the verticle sides? It should not go past the vertical line on the turret just behind the panels fitted for OIF.

Hi rick


yes i have applyed masking tape there.dont worry its only a cheap airbrush,just dont know weather it will pass through the nozzle or will it get clogged

cheers

Fabulous a picture of the 'motto' of my old regiment.
The 17/21st Lancers, sadly amalgamated to become the Queens Royal Lancers. Is this clipped from a full picture as if so I should like to get hold of it?

Accurate Armour has a decal sheet with it.
I'm sure there is someone else who makes them but I can't think of them now.

Hi John those are Bison decals for the Challenger II Operation Telic.

Rick

what are you planning to thin the Mr Surfacer with? My stuff is so thick it's even tough to paint it on using a brush sometimes.
