my collection of USSR WWII

[Guest]

Tell me, the green on your ISU 122 - did you mix that or is it a specially made Russian colour? It looks absolutely perfect, and properly evokes that Soviet era! Also, what is the tank in the last pair of pix?

@ John :


Use 4 diffrent colours of Green (highlight it)


-1- mix russian green (vallejo) with 5% white (rear and back of turrent behind)


-2- mix russian green + 10% white (engine + frontpanel)


-3- mix russian green + 25% white (on top - front part where turrent belong)


-4- highlight the small things on the tank


The last tank is a BT-5 from zvezda (Russian italeri)


Horroble kit with big open gaps and alot of headache

Thanks for that, duly entered into my notebook! Shame about the quality of that kit, I just don't have the tolerance for rubbish QC, I really admire modellers who can do the silk purse/sow's ear stuff, but spending good wonga on a model, and opening the box to see spruces that should have been replaced ten years ago just makes me shirty!
