Thats weird......didnt add all the words i typed

A tamiya kit ive never done before and thoroughly enjoyed it

Used it to try a few weathering and painting knacks.....didnt work quite how i wanted but that was whole idea....got to learn somewhere

Im not a figure person.....way out of my comfort zone.....but added a few for effect

Nice Stug Paul, and the figures are well painted too, you can't get better at it of you don't paint any ; ) cheers

Good result Paul. I am glad you put the paint pot in for reference. I agree with Steve that the figures look very well painted.

One thing i learnt long a go was to include a Universal Calibrated Unit of Comparison ?

I like that. Figures always add a sense of scale and action.

Nice Stug Paul.Really takes me back to my teens attempting to make one and paint it with Tamiya paint out of the bottle.Back then i didnt know the paint was better suited to Airbrush.

Paul,
That's a great result.

Hi Paul, brings back memories as it was my first of two Stugs and I still have it. The background does not do justice to the nice finish. You'll see even better results if you coat your figures with a Matt varnish to take off the shine and bring some detail up front.

Cheers,
