Aye, do an RTR tank then you can give them the black overalls. Is it RTR that have a skull and crossbones badge?

RTR have a WWI tank on their badge, the QRL have the 'or glory' skull badge.

Ahh, I knew it was one of the tank regiments who had the death or glory badge.

Freehand buddy, i dont tend to mask unless its a real hard edge pattern

That's the nutz buddy! I love the look of that pattern, pretty much one the money.
Now get some mud on her!
Oh... You're too tall and your hair it too dark.
Sorry... Couldn't resist haha.

Oooooooooh, very nice!! Fantastic camo work Paul - perfect transition from the green to the black. Now that's how you freehand camouflage!

awesome job paul! Looks really nice!

hey Paul

I have just started a challenger 2 from Hobby Craft (plastic part provided from trumpeter) I found that I'm missing steps 5 to 8 in the instructions any chance you can take a pic and sent it to me

Looking good Paul, can't wait to see it all the way

Ok so back at this after being inspired by nigel wells. cheers nige

I detail painted anything that needed doing and then highlighted all the raised areas with a lighter tone of each base colour and dry brushed it on. I then clear coated the entire thing with alclad aqua gloss and gave it an dark black brown oil pin wash.



Once dried i gave it a matt coat with Ak interactive's ultra matt which is awesome stuff, the best matt I've used imo. and this is now ready for a filter (not 100% convinced i need one so may skip it) and then an oil dot filter

Looks the nuts Paul!
I agree with you about the filter, the dot filter will obliterate it most likely anyway. After you do the dot filter and it still looks too stark (I doubt that it will) you can add one to tone it back.
The dot filter is going to make this thing sing dude!

Look stunning buddy glad your back at it will look at take some photos of mine at the weekend in some decent light.

Humm I don't think they are the same models ???? would both Instructions sheet be the same ?

So back to this, its was dot filtered then i gave it a light weathering using just Ultimate light dirt with a little Ultimate concrete mixed in it. I airbrushed this on where i wanted it (on a matt coat so no going back) and left it be. I used the photo below as a kind of inspiration with he build and the dio base i built tonight.

Nice work
just nice and neat little display
Next up the flying T-90 ?
There arw lots of good photo's for that

Oh yes!!! Like that a lot!!!!

Beautiful paintwork and the dust/dirt effects are just perfect, especially on that base! Gotta love those washes - all of my models have at least one of them on at some stage!

Great looking model, as usual. Like the presentation, nice and clean.
Looks very realistic.

These are the shots I was waiting for. Nice big and clear!!!
Wow!
That's how it's done. That's an excellent example of parade weathering bud.

Thanks fellas

Brilliant build mate and a stunning finish wow

Very, very, very nice!

Fantastic job mate! A really nice replica when compared to the real thing
