A grey day!

It was a grey day both with the chilly weather as well as with the Italeri Kangaroo APC which along with many parts received a coat of grey undercoat. Having already painted and weathered the internal part of the upper hull some basic masking tape around the edges enabled me to hold the model upside down so that any spray missed the already finished areas. The three figures were superglued to icecream sticks - luckily in stock as its too cold to eat icecreams!

With the masking done the grey was airbrushed on which will give a good base for the Olive Drab top coat. You can see the large number of seperate parts that also require painting and mounting on the vehicle. Did I say this was going to be a simple build?

By tomorrow the paint will have dried ready for the top coat and the weather may not be as grey but hopefully not Olive Drab in colour - that is just for the Kangaroo!
