Dunkelgrun added. What i enjoy about this type of painting is that it wouldn't be masked. It was all done free hand and therefore susceptible to overspray. I'm sure old Hans didn't care too much if he went over another colour.

excellent work.

I like that a lot. Really good work Alan. Much more fun than aircraft Camo….

IMHO, that’s a mistake a lot of modellers make: trying to do this camouflage too neatly and artistically. German AFVs in France before 6 June 1944 were often sprayed pretty neatly (because they were essentially on garrison duty, so lots of time and plenty of Feldwebels with nothing better to do than see if things are done correctly), but afterward … as long as it’s camouflaged, we’re good.

I really like that camo, it's come out fantastically. Looks spot on!

[AlanG]

Cheers guys. Going to try a bit more weathering on this one too.

What a lovely job Al, sorry late to this interesting build

[Steven000]

Nice progress Alan, camo looks great :thumb2:

[AlanG]

Bob you are not late. You've had far more important things going on. So not apology required

[Jim R]

That camo really does look good. Excellent AB skills :thumb2:

Added a little Flory wash to dirty it up a little

Looking nice and clean so far! Very impressed with the 'Just like that ... ' figure poses in the background :tears-of-joy:

Wheel hubs and gun shield painted. Just need to try and mask the front wheels now so i can paint the tyres.

That is a beast of a camo job Al. nice one.
This is coming along very well indeed.
