moeggo Posted January 26, 2007 Author Share Posted January 26, 2007 Sure do Ray! Got you PM, it's in the mail on Monday! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
moeggo Posted February 6, 2007 Author Share Posted February 6, 2007 update for now is - I finish doing the decals the other week and gave it a coat of future and the rounduls start to get air bubbles in them after the coat of future. I have been putting pin holes in coating them in more future and I have got most of the bubbles out. I have also guled on at the small bits and depth charges were added too. Just waiting for the front turret to arrive from the US and I will start weathering this big Cat! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
