          Hmmm interesting. Ive always darkwashed and then drybrushed color over it on my tanks. I like how you paint it first and then wash. I may have to try that. Maybe everyone does it that way and Im the odd man out. Anyway its looking real nice Aaron .

            Oh and forgot to say Im a 1/35 man myself but this lil guy seems to have a lot of detail to it. A very nice kit for 1/72 scale which to me at least sometimes lacks the detail of 1/35 scale. But that doesn't seem the case here. One lil word of advice though , I paint my extras before I put them on the vehicle. Shovels,spare wheels, and equipment. I would hate to have to pick them out after they are on the vehicle. Id really dread it in 1/72 scale!

                Looks great Aaron. Fading and the wash have brought it to life.

                  Cheers Jim...you don't base coat first? That's new to me, I'd love to watch you build. I like to get my tools glued down before base coating because I have an issue with gluing over paint. I paint the tools after a coat of future so if I slip with the brush I can get it off with a damp brush.


                  Thanks Joe and Ryan, appreciate the input.

                    That's looking superb Aaron! The wash is just perfect, it's so easy to overdo it in 1/72.
