Talk about a lot of head scratching with this one to were parts go and do I build it first then paint or paint parts first then build dunno
Need the weather to warm up a bit before any painting is done. yes!

There’s a guide on the box which shows what parts make up the arms, torso etc. they all are together in the main runner which is cool.

There’s a backing clip for the knees and elbows which are pretty hard to remove. I’d advise leaving them out until final assembly. That way it’s easy to do mock ups and still put it apart. Still waiting on the post. I thought it’d come Friday for sure as I was between nights shifts and had to sleep all day but nothing. crossed there here soon! I’m keen and don’t want to start anything else while the bench is clear atm.

dunno until im looking at a kit, but im prime all the parts first. After that depends on how you plan to paint it.

All good, got plenty to keep me amused. Just hope the others dont mind waiting on us.

Been looking at the new Japanese Tanks to see what colour they are as these things are Japanese. Looks like they are two tone Nato colour Dark Green and Brown.
I have looked at it closer today will primer parts then go with the Sand Yellow then use Green and Brown for strips in it, Might weather it a bit with pastel powder too.
Now for fine warm weather to start painting it. yes!

Sounds like a good idea going with Japanese colours Allan

Check this out for some weathering idea's.
