    Cheers chaps!

    First attempt at gun camo. Letting it settle and then working out if I like it!

    Very nice.

    Did you do the black outline in paint or use a marker?

    I used a marker for my French tank...

    Steve,

    @sjcorvi AK real colour marker. I think paint markers will be popular in the coming months. Interested to see how they go with weathering and clear coats.

    Great looking camo, Paul (@yellow10). I just got some AK paint markers, but haven't tried them yet. After seeing how yours came out, I will need to give them a try. All of the parts of the diorama are starting to come together.

    I really like what I see here... you guys are making it very hard to resist dragging out ,y 1/35 Meng Renault FT-17 after seeing how nice your camouflage has turned out. I'm also very interested to see how these paint markers fare when weathering is done on top of them.

    Fantastic is the word I think of when I see this project. The diorama base in incredible just by itself.

    Keep it going brother ! You are on a roll.

    I can't wait to see your next installment. ๐Ÿ™‚

    Cheers Louis @lgardner, gents. All comments much appreciated. Just plodding with this because in my mind there is a ton of work still to go. Like most builds itโ€™s a bit of trial and error.

    Wheels with a tiny bit of weathering. Only the basic build. Some way to go.

    The paint job is looking really nice, Paul. I've always like the stark, "blocky", WW1 camo patterns.

    That looks very realistic, Paul. Great work.
