I eventually finished at around 1500h, so approx 4 hrs to paint.


The pic of the RHR of the hull clearly depicts the base plate brackets, hand rail and also the footman loops for the straps to stow the ammunition tubes into place.
Nice going there mate! Beautiful hull and project.
Second pic, is that an Aussie hard at work....??
And the colour, is that Aussie laid back blue....??
