AFV CLUB M-40 Conversion to a M-43

Hey All :Hiay

I think these colors are going to work. Once the fade and shadow top coats are on it will all
come together even more.


Textured the nose with Mr. Surfacer 500.

A peek from the rear.


Catch you later

I went back in there and shot some fading using "Lifecolor" OD. That makes three different brands of Olive Drab, all different.



Pick your pleasure
Tony lee :laugh:

M-43 time again :D
Painted and installed wheels this morning and while they were drying I placed some PE and the fender extensions.



Three more pretty days before the rain and cold temps return. :(

Moving on around to the aft end, a brief update.

Crew seats painted and installed, a few bits placed and cleaning up the parts for the loading platform.



I'm going to sit back and watch war movies all day tomorrow and remember my brothers in arms.
