Takom 1/35 SADF G6 Rhino

[Snowman]

Hi all, started working on the base display for my G6 build.
Found a photo of it under cammo, on the border in 1987 on Ops Modular. The supporting blurb had photo’s of the G6 on trials “proewe” at the artillery range Riemvasmaak, earlier that same year.
Till the next update. 🫡

Finally started the Commander, I'm trying a different painting technique this time. Got the colour on, sealed with gloss, now for pinwash.
Till next time.🫡

Well, colour me happy. The commander is done and I have begun pre-shading the G6.
A little dark, in terms of the nutria, but generally pleased.
It's rough, but it does what it is meant to do.

Till next time.🫡

I have finally decided to start throwing some colour at this monster of a kit.

The pre-shading has the desired effect under the still wet coat.

The modified gun mount and the base of the barrel with Mr.Color laquear steel for the recoil wear.

The underside, still layering on.

Basically done from behind.

Turret in the works.

Till the next update!

The figure is very nicely painted. Pre shade has worked well.

Very nice work, particularly that commander figure
