what's happening with the rear left deck to hull join at the corner?

it should not be sitting up at an angle like that

[Rodolfo Torres Vazquez]

Nothing happens, it happens that the grid is not glued since it can be opened, so it looks irregular.

[Rodolfo Torres Vazquez]

Finished the application of the first color A-MIG-7028 Dunkelgelb thinned with A.MIG-2000 Thinner for better flow. (The skirts were painted apart).

Like the looks of this.....harv 

[Rodolfo Torres Vazquez]

Thanks harv!!!

Masking the wheels with Parafilm to start painting the camouflage. Parafilm can be stretched and molded to any surface without the need for glue.

[Rodolfo Torres Vazquez]

Camouflage applied using A.MIG-009 Reseda-green slightly diluted with A.MIG-2000 Thinner. Next step; detail wheels, tools, etc.

She looks great ! I like the invisible armor on the wheels....harv 

[Rodolfo Torres Vazquez]

Thanks for your kind comments harv,  Invisible camouflage to fool the enemy, hee, hee 

Ready for the weathering! The tools and tow cables were painted with A.MIG Tool Colors set, extinguisher with Vallejo # 70945 Dark-red and the spare tracks with A.MIG-035 Dark-tracks. The tracks are not glued yet.

Looking so good !....harv

[Rodolfo Torres Vazquez]

Thanks harv!

Applying filters to the Old school using Humbrol # 93 matt dessert yelllow and # 102 matt army green for each color giving more depth.

[Rodolfo Torres Vazquez]

Washed with A.MIG-1000 "brown-wash", I need to fine a bit. The wheels will be treated separately like the tracks. The color change is evident.

[harv]

Looks awesome  !.....harv

[Rodolfo Torres Vazquez]

Thanks harv!

Detailing using silver and graphite pencil-pigment in several areas, for wheel washing use the A.MIG Earth Europe set adding A.MIG- Dark Earth pigment.

[GazzaS]

Very nice!

[Bomber_County]

Looking amazing, I’ll have to look at using your techniques on the Pz IV……

[Rodolfo Torres Vazquez]

Thanks for your kind comments friends!

Working the tracks: with a mixture of Tamiya XF-1 Flat-black 40% and XF-64 Red-brown 60% and adding Lacquer Thinner (yellow cap) to give it greater fluidity, it gave me the grayish black-steel tone I was looking for , the next step is to apply A.MIG Lucky Satin Varnish to protect it from washes.

[Rodolfo Torres Vazquez]

More details: Spare tracks retouched with Oilbrush brown, red tile and white. Tracks with european hearth pigments and sprayed with pigment fix (local product) and retouched with graphite; finally some small scratches, now is ready for mounting and to give final details.

[harv]

Damn that looks good!! 

[Rodolfo Torres Vazquez]

Thanks harv!

I am finishing some small details, after of this I will apply A.MIG-Lucky Matt Varnish and paint the preriscopes and ready!.
