Thanks!
With this build I'm attempting to paint it the way it would be done in real life: green first, the truck comes out of the factory like that, then brown and finally black. All those raises and indentations on the parts made me choose the stencils, but your way seems to be the way to go on the trailer and tank since there are more flat surfaces 👍🏻

I'm not sure which way you're going, but I'd give each one a coat of clear too, before moving on. I used gloss, then obviously added the decals later, then gave everything a coat of Matt.
Most definitely keep your clear parts covered, until you're finished everything!
I'll just add, canopy painting sucks, but looks great when finished correctly. However, I'd still rather paint a truck, than another spitfire, hurricane or ME109. I still have a Mustang P-51 to do, but that's gonna be a Redtail

Bummer. Postman claims that he attempted to deliver today at 5pm. The wife and my mum were both at home and nobody came! So I have to wait now, until tomorrow, for my huge haul of parts. This is something that happens here, with our post, now. The postmen are foreigners and they miss out on drops, so they can get in front and get home early. It sucks, and proving it, is hard. Chances are, I was the only delivery in my cul-de-sac, so they skipped me 🙁
Tomorrow is another day though, and I now have another goal to achieve 😉

Postal workers aren't what they used to be. Let me assure you, the trouble you're having with them isn't just a problem over there. The situation sadly isn't much better on this side of the North sea. I've had packages of which the postal services claimed that they were delivered on one Friday, but they actually turned up a whole week later! Being the only delivery in your street is not a valid excuse for them to just not show up, let alone lie about it.
Thankfully it's just hobby materials this time, but this also happens to businesses that get delays and claims due to one person not doing their job properly. Sure, the postal workers aren't paid very well and have to make long days, but if that's not your thing you shouldn't be out delivering packages?
