That's a perfect item for a chipping effect!!! Specially on the gun barrel and the inner soil


You have all my attention!

[Wong Ryan]

Thanks for dropping by people..hope i won't disappoint you all. Its really my first half track.

Been away for sometime. Progress is very slow. Painted and chipped the interior. Camo color is on, and waiting for chipping.


Oh...and this is the first time I am using Acrylic paint for the painting. Pretty difficult at first to adjust the thinner + color ratio, and my airbrush keeps getting clog.

welcome back,


this is looking good so far Ryan,im real liking it it,


as for AB clogging well i know all about that drivers me nuts lol,

[Wong Ryan]

After another long disappearance from the scene, I am back with some updates.


Pics a bit blur, taken with my mobile phone.


Added tools, machine gun, a bucket and tracks are on. Decals are on too. The kit is very shinnnnnyyyyy now due to a coat of Future.


The track is a bit narrow, if zoom in, you will see the outer wheels that are not within the width of the track. Too late to rectify though, because the super glue already set in when I realize that. Will take note of this when I build my next half-track.


Next will be pin wash and some slight weathering. I hope I will be able to control the weathering, always "heavy handed" on this process.

Nice build, very realistic point job, the chopping is nice without being excessive.
