Thomas WirschingAll the build (exept for the 3d printed steel ropes and the headlight glasses) is finished and ready for painting. This is my first CSM kit and I have to say I am deeply impressed of the quality of the instructions, historical chapter, fit of all the parts. This build was one of the most comfortable I did so far and everything fell together as easy as a stroll in the park. The resin figures had a few bubbles in some arms to fill but nothing worth to worry about. I am very looking forward to paint this exotic multi color camouflage now!

Thomas WirschingFinished the vehicle´s crew today. It was not easy to find facts about the uniform of the french "Fusilier Marin" but I think I catched the colors somehow. Figures are still a tad shiny but will dry out completely matte soon

Thomas WirschingFinished painting all four camouflage colors. It was a tedious job but everything looks right to me. The black outline color between the camouflage spots will be done soon after letting the colors thoroughly dry

Thomas WirschingVoila! There we are with the completed project. Right at the end of the vehicle paint process desaster struck but I think I was able to cover it a bit. Nevertheless it was my first CSM kit but it was a relaxative built. The upper etched frame over the driver compartment was accidently touched a thousand times during the build and it finally disintegrated in several bended and twisted parts and was finally ommitted. Thank you for your interest, I hope you like my work
