Crusader II - Update II

Hello fellow Group Builders,

I thought I would share with you a painting update for the Crusader.

I began by giving the tracks a metallic finish - obviously I'm not too worried about overspray at this time.....

And then the base colors applied very quickly. First a layer of dark grey and then uneven coverage of the desert colors...

And then seal it up with a light coverage of Future....it's just something that I like to do.

Next, I apply small chips using a kitchen pad and fine brush....

The story continues........'till next time.

Thanks for following along,
Rick
