Hey Moonie, if it helps I'll bring some beer for the hotel room party
. Or maybe some good German Schnapps
Sorry no new up date on the T-69. Been doing the painting video for the Celticwerks motor comp set and haven't had much time for this model.

With the weather being as it is this past weekend I hit the bench for a couple of hours. The upper/lower hulls have been glued together and work on the exterior has begun.
I decided to scratch the undamaged fender using styrene, and the other severely damaged fender will be done using thin aluminum foil.
Still have to add alot of the small details to the fenders and hope to start the painting this coming weekend if all works out.

You and me both. The painting is loooong over due. Been working on this for the past six months or so.Way too long on one model. I usually get tired of a model after a month or so and have to start a new project.

6 months is too long for one kit? News to me, I thought that was the norm!

Well ladies and gents, there is finally some paint on this sucker. I spent about 6 hours on Saturday painting. Well at least the base colors are on. Still the detail painting and chipping to do before the weathering starts.
Hope you like it so far.
It will be a couple days before I can get some bench time in, so the next update will be at the end of the week.

Thanks Terry
Ok, I did get some bench time in today, about 5 hours. Taking a short break right now then it's back at the bench for at least another hour. I spent about 3 hours doing the road wheels. I should have the model done by Sunday, then I have to do a base for it and misc debris. And I still have to paint the tracks :angry:
Pics coming up soon.
