First completed build of my Covid-19 lockdown project.
Selected from the stash as it doesn't need an airbrush and has few parts, so will provide good practice to recover my rusty modeling skills!
During the build I added a custom dash, even though my printer is not really up to the job of fine details in this scale, still looks better than the kit offering. Also improved the headlight guards as the kit ones were just too bulky.
Based on various references and my carefully calibrated eyes I decided a mix of Vallejo 139/US Field Drab & 316/Dk Olive Drab looked suitable. A wash & some highlighting to be applied after I've completed the ICM ZiL-157 & Academy GMC CCKW so they can all be done together.
