Hi all,
Sorry for the lack of updates, but here is a small update on the Leopard.

The decals have been applied, all 6 of them:

Thanks chaps :cool

Mark, yes all done with washes, filters and weathering effects, see picture below. The heavy mud deposits are Tamiya Diorama texture paint. With the filters/washes/weathering effects/diorama paint it is a case of many thin applications rather than one thick layer, as you can see where you need to build up more dirt or remove it.

I hope this is of some help Mark :grin:

Hi all,
Had some drama's with the tracks :angry: I was going to use Bronco clip together moveable tracks but they kept falling apart and TBH I was getting threaders with them, so I went into my Panther stores and found some metal Fruil tracks and 60 mins later there are 2 runs of 66 links each :grin:
