This is a photo step by step build of this Churchill tank, first I just put it together over a few hours I wanted to experiment with effects, first photo is the whole tank, nothing special to report other I left of the hatches, headlights and small pieces that normally get knocked off when I start painting and weathering etc. I used Mr Hobby Cement S as its fantastic, dries quick and faultless, for the purpose of ease I am only showing pictures of the turret and before I try any painting or effects I am using an old spitfire wing to practice on first
Please feel free to give feedback as I go through it and should take me about another week or so, I will upload photos as I progress
Photos so far, whole tank, turret in lifecolour rust effect, this was to bright so re painted with tamiya flat earth.

Ok so started today by spraying the rust coloured turret with AK interactive heavy chipping fluid, when dry painted tamiya dark green and when that was dry applied a few chips and scuffs then sealed with Klear. When dry used Mig dark wash and oil paints raw umber and yellow to give subtle streaks (applied decals using microset Sol before I used the oil paints)
Sprayed with Windsor and newton acrylic Matt varnish.
What's left?, attach hatches and other bits and bobs and will start to dust and mud up etc, more photos in a day or 2 as back to work tomorrow
