KV-1B Winter Camo
Posted: Wed Jul 22, 2015 9:33 am
Hi guys,
Here is my 3rd entry in the holiday series. The KV-1B. 1/72 scale.
Box art:
The instruction sheet:
The sprews:
Lower hull:
Wheels assembled:
Tracks assembled. They were hell to glue on there.
I had to cut of half the sprockets teeth to make the tracks fit around them.
Turret and upper hull assembled:
Details assembled:
Base colour:
Detail painting. Well there isn’t much detail to paint.
Did the white winter wash with strongly deluted acrylics so that it would creep up in some places
which gives the illusion of wear/chipping.
And did some snow effects on the tracks with thick acrylics.
The rest of the weathering I did with oil paints. And some graphite for metal looks.
That’s it for the KV.
Next up:
I’ll be joining the KV with the Half Truck on a winter dio.
cheers
