A couple of late nights in the new shed. I broke open some old Humbrol enamel paints that are over 30 years old. A bit of turps in the pot and away they go again.
At this stage I'm just playing with the colour scheme. I like the green, not sure about the brown yet. The gloss black might be a bit much too. I'm also working on some stencils to spray on some military markings and such. Might put a bit more techy looking bling on the joints too. Looking a bit bare in there.
Turret is started. Used light cover of a roller door unit and the back of an old landline handset. Used soldering iron to heat-score and fold to shape.
Next, I cut the arms off the back of a roller door motor and screwed them to the sides of the light cover.
