Time for some camo, l first tried the one of the AK greens in the set l had been using. The colour was nice and l really like it but upon reflection think that it will completely disappear under the washes and filters that will be added;

So I went for my default Tamiya paints, this one being XF26 Deep Green. Then, my worst airbrushing session ever, anything that could go wrong did go wrong;

Now have sprayed it with clear prior to the decals.

Silly tablet with useless copy and paste, unless it was me?

Anyway now on the lap top so here is the correct second photo showing the completed camo prior to the Klear coat

Nice camo - At this moment I plane the same on my "little" Panther D. I think that will be not pliagiarism ?

... Good work Buddy , i like your style and execution

Hi all, progressing through the dot filter stage. Four oil colours selected, limiting the darker colours to areas of shadow and lower portions;

Posted: **Mon Apr 21, 2014 4:28 pm**

Blend the oils with brush moistened with white spirit ...

Posted: **Mon Apr 21, 2014 4:33 pm**

The lower hull has dot filters completed, just the turret to finish and then can move on to the next stage of weathering ....

This is some work!!! Love the camouflage!!

Posted: **Mon Apr 21, 2014 7:20 pm**

Will be a next pearl in your collection mate . Top level for me

. I like all , particularly Damp patch's

Posted: **Mon Apr 21, 2014 7:31 pm**

I usually try to avoid Dragon kits; always have the worst luck with them.

But seeing your build has got me reconsidering that viewpoint. Great job!

Thanks, I know what you mean, it took me ages and a few trashed kits to get used to Dragon kits, I still can't get to grips with their half tracks!

Dot filters now complete, chipping next whilst also working on the crew ...

Thanks Gustav, really kind of you. Of course, if you need a couple of pointers give me a shout and I'll be only too pleased to help.

Chipping stage complete. I have been a little lazy as chipping would usually include a light buff followed by the dark chipping, only the latter employed here

Withe that colour schedule Paul, it looks perfectly fine. It may have been too stark with the buff.
I think that you chose right bud. She looks fantastic!

Tyres painted with Vallejo Dark Rubber and tracks treated with AK burnishing fluid. As soon as I get a couple of free hours the pigment stage will be carried out;

Closer and closer - Super ! I see the finish this knick-knack .
