Hi Mikie,   you have the perfect vehicle on that shirt! 😇

Thank you! I usually paint at least the tracks separately. As explained before this was not possible with this kit, what unfortunately means a lot of extra work.   I made a mistake. I choosed the wrong sand color for the Paladin. Under artificial light it seemed to look okay (photo # 1) but when exposed to daylight it turned out much too bright (photo #2). I thought about fixing it with filters and washes but finally decided to paint it again. After some more research I ordered new colors which arrived today...    

Some better images whilst I’ve got w moment to myself.    It’s certainly seen a bit of use, I actually tried it on with the headset and a number of different sunglasses, AN6531s, D1 goggles and various RAF issue types and all actually fit relatively comfortable in this configuration.

I have a vague memory of this model canteen being designed to fit a leg pocket of a flight suit.

This came In a small group.  I noticed the odd clutch back for the pin.  Once I removed it I noticed right away the maker Assmann a German manufacturer.  Pleasantly surprised.
