Cheers, a weekend build to give me a break. Loved the figures, very human poses and they gave the inspiration to build the model

Nice model and weathering job. 👍
Just the silvering on the registration numbers decals spoil an even better result🙁

Thanks, for positive comments. I'm struggling with decals at the moment. Have always used Gunze Mr Series, Had a problem with it reacting with paints even after gloss coated, switched to Tamiya, not getting enough softening, so tried Gunze again and it affected paint again on this one (so hid under some stowage). Little cautious now.

Love it, the M-8 is my current build and will use your weathering as inspiration, though I can not build as fast.

Are you using the GSI Creos decal solutions?

Great figure work by the way

Richmond, yes, I just use the old name Gunze, it was Mr Mark Softner if I recall, green lid one

Scott, apologies I see you are, didn't read your post properly. Very interesting observation, never experienced or seen it experienced before. Could it be the clear coat you are using?

Suspect that it is more that I hadn't let it cure enough (It was Tamiya, bottles, not spray can). It was on about 24 hours but they may not be enough.

Awesome job. The Greyhound is well done, and the figures are excellent!
