Wow, what a transformation..
Not sure i get decals on tonight but if I get wheels on and some color, would it be close enough to claim credit?
Let the fact that I can reset everyone's passwords have no bearing on that decision... :evil: :geek
OK that's it, eyes started going on me. I got some flat earth on the handles of the tools, metalcoat on the shovel head, axe and pick but didnt buff it out. Also did a really lite mist of flat earth for some dusting along the bottom, barely noticable in these shots. Only got two good shots, went without flash on the others and it was just too dark to see anything.
Up to y'all, do I get credit for completion?

Hey Moon
Here's a trick I just learned, to help speed things along.
Instead of gloss coating before applying decals, take a piece of coffee filter paper and
use it to polish the area where the decals will go. Apply decals with the usual setting
solutions, and...no worries about silvering...well, it worked for me!
Give it a try!

Thanks Tom, good to know but times up. I'll take my time and get the gloss coat on and then decals, some more weathering and stowage, only one really bad spot with the PE. Think a well placed duffle bag can clear that up.
