Paul Palmer Posted January 2, 2017 Author Share Posted January 2, 2017 (edited) nearly done,beacon added,just have to paint the front wheel inserts,and perhaps a bit more weathering,but proberbly not,however i do think i need to rust the exhaust up a bit,the front weight looks better and all seems to be level,im happy with her now,oh i forgot,rear wheel weights to be added,but they are on their way Edited January 2, 2017 by Paul Palmer 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CX820Joe Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Looks really good Paul, especially the weathering. I've got some of those MIG pigments, how do you use it? Is it on for good or can you wash off if needed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wayne D Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 Good work mate, looks very realistic now with the added weathering and rusted exhaust! Did you fit the Britains rims and tyres onto the UH front axel? Or fit the full Britains front axel, rims and all to the UH in the end?
