Shenanigans 6: Tamiya PzKpfw II

[SteveH]

Morning Peter,

Love the finish and the the 2 old girls look the part and sit nicely together on the base.

Is there anything you could build and paint that would reduce your speed to only several times faster than the rest of us? LOL

Its a shame the diorama will get boxed but space is always at a premium for hobbies spilling into living space, and your busts should always get priority.

I auctioned off my Pz II G and donated the funds to running the very small forum that ran the build as a GB.

It could fund your next bigger project?

Some modellers have their work displayed in hobby shops to encourage customers, in exchange for another kit?

Where ever the base ends, you have done a great job on the tanks and figures.

Its getting colder soon, so pack away the Hawaiian shirts and shorts and back into the thermals LOL

Have a god day with your? whats next?

Regards

Steve H

John - Katherine's recently been buying new music, so I guess the piano stays!

Simon - Even I have to admit that the PzKpfw II was pretty basic. I'd be keen to try an updated version to compare.

Rick - Very kind. Thank You.

Steve - I've got plenty of flat surfaces to paint display stuff on, but they're not under glass - still have memories of my mum dusting my stuff to pieces.

I think I'll start on the Protze next. I'm off to Lewes on Monday, so that should take me most of the way there.

Hi Peter
Missed this completely. Result is great and the map on the oil drum is a nice touch.

That's the one Peter! That is a wonderful grouping. Great to see you work your style on these classics. Short and sweet but a real joy to watch. Thanks for sharing

Your paint work is without doubt, top drawer. I love the way you highlighted the edges of all parts to bring out the details. Just superb work.
Cheers, Rick H.

Superb Peter.

Steve - Thank you. Still a long way to go before I reach your standard.

Rick - Many thanks for your kind words. I must admit that I've been having a bit of a wobble about the painting, but you have restored my confidence somewhat. It's a very different technique and I suppose is all about bringing out the detail.

Mick - Thanks so much for your continued support.

Simple is often the best.
