Paulster Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 A lot of those Trumpeter kits are a great way to get back into or start building armor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One-Oh-Four Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Great looking model, Steve! I particularly like the way you weathered that basically boring scheme to something that is pleasing to look at and makes one want to keep looking and discover new details! Also the semi-matt gives a very good effect as I Always had the idea from Intel-photos that these vehicles were quite glossy to begin with.

Steve Scanlon Posted April 18, 2014 Author Share Posted April 18, 2014 Thanks Erik, I agree it has always been the habit to matt them down but when you see pics. such as those from the Crimea, the vehicles are satin looking in their finish, sure enough as the layers of grime and dust accumulate they start to look matt, so I gave it several washes on top of the usual gloss coat and it brought the finish down to this satin look. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
