OlivierQuite a specialist subject ... What colour scheme do you have in mind ?

Angel YovtshevThanks Olly!
The colour will be dark green.The vehicles were delivered in their standard Italian dark green, Bulgarian Royal Army standard colour was also dark green, so even repainted at overhaul/maintnance/for parade they remained in- more or less -the same colour.

Spanjaardeverything is looking good, but those wheels look simply amazing! lots of work there! i remember doing the spokes of my Honda NXR-750. I thought i was getting crazy... and there were only 2 wheels, not four! 🙂

Angel YovtshevYes-lot of work there, but a lot of fun too.Multiplied by four in my case,Spanjaard😉
Alexander G-you're right mate- it is a wicked wired thing...

Bart Goesaertextraordinaty vehicle that seems to be more suited to WWI then WWII... but it's a nice build so far and nice to see something on the weirder side...

Angel YovtshevBart, thanks for your comment!
The WWI look is inherited from the Pavesi P4 agriculture tractor, designed in 1918.

Angel YovtshevThanks Olly!
Enjoyable build sofar.
I intend to add roof framing and canvas on both carts.
I feel like I don't want to finish construction phase yet...

Bart GoesaertLooks nice, instead of an old one it looks like a runaway from the movie "Critters"

Angel YovtshevBart, that's because of the black primer😉
Patrick, pretty sure it isn't.Or at least I cannot imagine the last Bulgarian Tzar attending steam punk parade 80 years ago😢
