Thanks. Most likely it will be in a box scheme as bluish belly and brownish top.

I think it's completed - I get to the point were I always wonder if I should add some more weathering.

weathering is a personal choice, some like new out of the factory, others dirty as if in 3 years of war..... my choice? I would not touch it any more😉 it looks fantastic.

Thanks Spanjaard - yes, I think you're right. I will leave it as it is. It will be placed on small base with engine and trolley so I hope it will be quite good.
