Nice build. I love the grass on tracks and fenders. How did you make it?

Andrew:

Nice Tiger you got there. I too am a fan of your grass and mud mixture. Your paint job looks great. How was the kit? Any problems u run into?

Thanks again guys,
here are the ingredients for the mud/grass mixture

just mix and stick!!!!
The kit was a pleasure to build,no filler used
some of the PE bits were a bit of a pain,but you get plastic alteratives
