WIP Treasure Island.

Faded and weathered like the rest and it will look great. I suppose at some point even salty old dogs like this had a clean item of clothing, but it wouldn't look right!

Can you believe it took me two and a half hours to build up the basecoat.
I'm hoping to make a start on toning it down tomorrow, I think it'll take
a couple of sessions to get it where I want it.
As you say it wouldn't look right it looked new.

Sometimes the paint just doesn't want to co-operate which is very frustrating. Looking forward to seeing you do your magic on it.

Being tardy, as of late, I've missed the last few updates, but wow, pretty dang sweet, Malc! This is turning out to be a hum-dinger, as they say!

Ruck Onward, Malc!

Cheers, Steve, I'm not happy with the coat, so I'm going to make some slight changes to the colour scheme.

The base of the coat is excellent, I really like this choice of color. Once patinated, worn, it will be just perfect.

 

[NigelR]

Wow, blocking out the coat has really brought this to life!

My apologies for taking a while to reply, unfortunately I've been unwell and just getting back on my feet now.

Although I did like the colour initially, and I appreciate your faith in me to tone and weather it down.
But after careful consideration I opted for a slightly different shade of grey.

Fingers crossed I can post a progress report soon.

My apologies for the lack of updates, I've been rather unwell, and just returning to strength.
Fingers crossed I can post an update in the not too distant future.
