DocRob Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 Looking fantastic, nice work on the weathering and the period photo relation makes it stand out. I started the kit some years ago, but have yet to finish it. Cheers Rob 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope that maybe you get an inspiration to finish your D9R as well I started it as a test bed for multi layered painting techniques then. As far as I know there is the typical CAT yellow under the IDF hemp color. I wanted to use the hairspray technique to show wear and tear through the different layers, metal, primer, yellow hemp for more depth in the weathering. I used the same technique later successful on a Corsair build. BTW, Cheers Rob 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FullArmor Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 Yes looking great! Thanks for sharing. I'm not a believer but most certainly would be humbled inside of those massive four blades. 🕍 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Israel do get it yellow painted and if you zoom in, there are yellow chips on the lower part of the dozer. From my understanding, the upper part though is replaced, so there can't be yellow chips. 🤝 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with the possible feeling inside those - I guess it's better than nothing. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GiveMeScale Posted February 11 Author Share Posted February 11 Thanks Bomber_County. Looks like a very good website with nice people to discuss models - I believe each one of us, really wants to share his work with people that understand it. Yes, the D9 is a real beast. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
