It looks great! Those boys at the factory REALLY wanted the tire pressures known didn't they?

 

[sapper23]

Yeah seriously.... I only see image names no pics on last series? IDK what's going on there.

 

[BarleyBop]

I only see image names

I had same issue around that time, refresh didn't bring them either, so navigated away and came back, and there they were!
Bet you can see them now, Sapper.

Lookin' good! Outdoor lighting just brings a whole other dimension of realism. Chipping more noticeable, nice...

 

[sapper23]

Antennas to sort out and guy to paint otherwise is done, I think...

Yeah those are the main gun cleaning rods.

 

[sapper23]

Turned out pretty well I think. Provided I don't mess up antennas and the guy with it lol.

Looking very nice. However, I think I would take some of the shine off the stowage with some matt varnish. Right now it looks like a lot of it got rained on, yet the vehicle itself looks dry.

Very nice job and great painting and weathering. Congrats!

Yeah true did not notice, at least to a degree the whole thing turned out to be a bigger project than I thought lol. Will fix.
