So, success! So, the morale of the story: If at first you don't succeed, feed the evidence to the dog. Try them with Cocoa Krispies some time! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlrwestSiR Posted December 5, 2022 Share Posted December 5, 2022 I couldn't help myself. I just wanted to glue something together. Besides my fingers. We'll see how far I get. I'm still working on the Falcon though. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

belugawhaleman Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 Still working on the Tamiya M51 Sherman...... Primer on ...using bothTamiya primer and MR. Surfacer 1500 thinned with leveling thinner which works great. Still debating what to use to paint it. A mixture of Tamiya desert yellow and buff was suggested by a modeler on YouTube..... May try some pre-shading first..I've never got this right, usually applying the color coat to heavily and losing the effect.. We'll see. Anyway, it's good to be doing something at least....I'll try to be a little more creative, perhaps, this time.😀 Please note the Tamiya thinner and Mr. Surfacer were not mixed together....they were used separately. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GazzaS Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 That looks great, Paul. Really... it's the only Sherman that gives the 'wow' factor. Now... this is a special request... please find some 1/35 scale IDF tank maidens to put on it. Israeli girls are so hot! 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GazzaS Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 The Dragon SdKfz 250/11 continues. I kitted out the interior per the kit instructions and weathered it. But the crew will obscure most details. But here I have proof. Once I get the top of the machine glued down I can start to adjust the poses of the riders. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peterpools Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 Gaz As always - some mighty fine weathering and you're so right, the crew does obscure most the weathered details but will look so good. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
