I like this Jim, love the subtle way you do damage and crumple panels, easy to go wrong in plastic. Add that to the build, paintwork and weathering and you have a very, very nice model indeed.

Nicely done Jim. The tracks, the damaged panels, the weathering, colour modulation are all convincing. Great build.

Thanks Monica, I've found over the years that one must mix their own colors if they want the hue they're looking for, easier than mulling over all the different colors at the store. Since I only use cheapo craft water paints there aren't any particular "military colors " so to speak so one is basically on his own. Just part of the artistic aspect of it and that's what makes it fun. Another "Rooski" coming along soon.........................Luv, Jim

[monica]

ta Jim yes I do understand that as i,try to mix that green by using russian green and adding off whites and a tin of brown to it,


but i think you have nailed it,as it looks more a washed out sun bleached green,

This is very nicely done. The base looks good too, gives a nice setting for the model. The weathering and fading is executed perfectely. Top job!

Another nice one Jim, captures that worn and battered look nicely.

I do like that Jim! No-one would fancy looking down the business end of that cannon!
