Nice work Tony! All she needs now is a little dirt and grime.

Don't feel bad Tony I have a hard enough time translating Cockney English as well as regular English English. Now you have to find a crew for that GMC ( translated Gun Motorized Carriage for the folks not familiar with military terms)

Your showing your age Tony. LOL

I remember watching Sanford and Son too as a kid back in the 70's and 80's.

of course I used to watch Star Trek re-runs on a small tabletop black and white TV as well.

I like this very much, quick question for you about the SCC.2

I'm attempting Mike Starmers Tamiya mix of 5pts Nato Brown + 4pts Flat Yellow + 1pt Flat Black.

But is seems to be darker than yours.  What formula did you use for yours?

 

Thanks

Consensus on Network54 is Tamiya have changed the formulation on some of their colours, & an up to date revision by Mike Starmer can be found here http://www.network54.com/Forum/47208/thread/1455271480

Hataka, a Polish co(?) have released Hataka British AFV paint set (WW2 European colours) # AS22 as here; 

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Hataka-British-AFV-paint-set-WW2-European-colours-AS22-/231922735592?hash=item35ffac19e8:g:F3kAAOSwdrRXG-Rd

Includes the elusive SCC2, SCC15 & SCC1a, & night black, similar containers to Vallejo/MIG but haven't used them yet, so won't comment on their colours or usability.

 

Hannants do Xtracrylix XA1817 British Dark Earth & XA1002 RAF Dark Earth BS450, which I do use, they spray & cover well & the RAF colours at least are slightly satin.

Gives you a few more options, good luck
