And ready and on the base. The fence is just strips of beech veneer, cut to size, died a bit with some brown and grey filters, sprayed white and weathered ( and chipping fluid before).

After build, first color (sand yellow from a Hataka Red Line "Polish AFV) set

And the two other colours from the polish AFV set, sprayed freehand. Which was rather tedious and error prone, as the Hatakas clogged the airbrush nearly immediately. Great for basic coats, but not so good for fine work, alas.

And the small base with just a bit (I think it was bentonit, a sort of clay dust) and some "stones" cast from a "ceramic" gypsum.

And of course I broke of the complete trackset again.... happened to me 4 times during the build. Woe is me and my clumsyness.

Have to practise the "dusting", tool and exhaust painting further....
