Trumpeter 1/35 2S3 Akatsiya 152mn Self Propelled Howitzer

[Wong Ryan]

This is my latest build. I am incorporating the Black n White technique by Jose Luis Lopez , with some if my own modification to it. Basically this technique requires you to paint the kit using shades of gray between pure Black and pure white (inclusive of black n white itself). There r YouTubes video by Jose Luis Lopez . The logic is with all the weathering dine, you just need to spray the base color. the different shades of black, gray n white will change the color of your base color.

Pics not very clear though...[ATTACH]283533[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]283534[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]283535[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]283536[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]283537[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]283538[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]283539[/ATTACH]

And the overall 1st cut of the product... not exactly what was expected...need some refinement, but that will be on d next project. Will see how further weathering would improve the final outcome of this kit.[ATTACH]283669[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]283670[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]283671[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]283672[/ATTACH]

Mmmm.....let's see how it looks after the weathering. Now I see something different....

[Wong Ryan]

Lightened with a bit of white + green paint. Picture is not that clear, but the model has gone through a round of blue filtering.

Thanks everyone, for the comments. Some chippings, and perhaps over speckled some green paints....may need to repaint some of the panels.
