THE COLOUR ON THE SLEEVES LOOK OK but why is the breast darker is he wearing some sort of overall under the jacket?????

The breast is darker cause i painted it in burnt umber when i had the color green...yes he has some sort of waist coat/ jacket but i don't know the exact color of it ??

if its a dangaree id go for a dark shade of khaki

Those are certainly dungarees and the painting is excellent although i do not know about the colours.

Listen and paint you untamed puppy

Joking apart you look like you're doing a great job and follow Alex's advice so you'll keep on the right track........well he's Doc's cousin after all that's why Doc Roe left it all in his venerable cousin's ABLE hands

In terms of scale modelling, it is called family tree ABUSE

Will bring turret to me on wed before I start splashing some paint on it....

Was actually considering subcontracting the paint job ...being such a slow worker...
But I'll carry my cross like a good crusader and do my best to finish in time....

Impressive work on the turret, come on sam, work harder and harder

Sa l-ahhar qatra dal-progett!

Love the turret Alex nice OD!

Ivan

Have to agree with the others...great OD!!!

What mix are you using? Is it the Tamiya XF-62 OD with Dark Yellow XF60 and Yellow-green?

One thing...the oval hatch should be completely down cos I prepared the spring attachments in the fully open position...ie the hooks on the turret side go into the spring loops on the hatch side...
Give me a ring if you didnt get what I mean...

Thanks for helping out cous!
