The scratches from sanding down the filler were still too pronounced, so I went at them once more!

Better! The oval nozzle-thingy doesnt look too good, but my first try at panel re-scribing was difficult 😄

I like it so far - have another 4 projects WIP that I didn't feel the mojo for (man, tanks are tedious sometimes xD) and this is the right palate cleanser! Also ordered a bunch of MRP metallics that I wanted to try (they are awesome!).

Hey! I got one too! LOL How's the kit and PE working, any issues yet?

Thanks a lot already, guys! It means a lot to me! 😄

Timothy: the PE has it's usual challenges in fiddly-bit-stuff while the kit fors like a glove! It's simply marvellous!

Unless the weather keeps getting hotter and more humid, I hope to have the basic paint job and decals done by the weekend so I can start weathering! 🙂

Aaaaaaand it's finished - while I wasn't too happy with the combination of blackbasing and postshading, I think that oils and weathering really pulled the paintjob together.

All in all a very enjoyable kit and I feel like I managed to improve somewhat in my workmanship. 🙂

That's great that you've improved your skills on this because it does look good!! Nice work! I hope mine looks as good.
