I moved the M3 Late that I built to the paint shop before James moves his in there. :D

When I saw the title, I was going to offer condolences for your late Lee, but it appears to be early. :rotf

You've been a green machine of late, nice work, pardner!

While watching the Indy 500 I installed the mud guards front and back,the markings as well as the wheels and tracks. Last night I coated the right front sprocket with a brown wash and it changed the color as expected,more brownish.

OK I sealed in the markings and while that was drying I got to thinking about the other brands of OD that I had and Vallejo Model Air US Olive Drab seemed to be more brown than the others so what I did was mix a 80/90% thinner to color and just sprayed a dusting coat not real heavy because my fade was getting weak. To the eye it did add a tinge of brown to the OD but the camera and lights make it appear more green than it is.

OD is another one of those subjective colors but I feel like this one suits me now.

"What's going on here? Did you decide to take the summer off?"

I ordered some paint and it had the wrong colors in the right set so I ask for a replacement. It got held for lack of invoice and toxic report by FEDEX. It says Non Toxic right on the bottles :blink

Two more Takom M3's and a Tamiya M2 Stuart to be released this month too :yipee

You know me when I get to the bench it's hard for you guys to keep up anyway. :D
