[Steve Brodie]

I am in awe of the wonderful painting techniques i am seeing on this forum and this shilka looks real.

Such skill - very impressive

That's very kind of you to say, feel very humbled. ops:

Slight difference between the weathered hull and clean (to be weathered) turret

Not as orange as the camera has decided to photo the model

Looks very realistic Steve the weathering is spot on.

Got around to getting some dust and rust onto the turret last night;

Next will be some pigments (mixture of concrete and sand) lightly brushed over the whole tank. Add the tracks and build the base for this beast to sit on.
