IBG Autocannone 3RO with 90/53 90mm Anti-Aircraft Gun

Great paint job Scottie. Glad to see you did the recoil wear on the barrel. Good luck with the weathering

Next one of my favourite parts of modelling, the weathering.

The gun platform received some work to remove some of the sand paint (following some hairspray) where the gun team would move around. Next some chipping. Followed by a oil dot wash. I want to show a wagon that has put up with the desert conditions for a while. Saying that there are some areas that I might tone back a bit.

Next will be a pin wash to bring out the detail.

The gun shield hopefully you can make out the light streaking.

Excuse us Paul .
Andy it might be a damn site easier than plastic , at least tracks would have natural sag :smiling3:Thank you Paul .
 
Simply outstanding Scottie..... Rather you than me on the gun shield!!!

Keep up the great work.

Yeah Scottie, I'm with the rest of this crowd....I find the streaking and chipping to be about right for a desert environment. I apologize for "slippering" into that "ball" of banter over "knitting" but I couldn't keep from "needling" JR just a little! I hope I can "mend" my ways and "knot" be such a bore in the future! ;) yours, "stitchy" Rick.

Jakko, I keep meaning to get myself a pair of those.
Check with Mr. Race I believe he has some extra knitting needles and 4BO yarn left :tongue-out3: ;) :thumb2:
Rick, I will have to try and find a pattern.
That's worked a treat. Well done. Looking very good.

Thanks Jim, it doesn't look to bad but could have been better.
Excuse us Paul .

No worries John, I'm enjoying the banter.
All joking apart Paul those photos show some great realisem.
Thanks John, but not 100% happy with it.

Very nearly finished. As I said earlier in the thread I'm not sure I am 100% happy but it was a good learning curve. Pigments have been added tried to make the vehicle look like an accumulation of dust and sand had built up.

Please be honest and let me know what you think both good and in particular where It could be better.

A few more little pieces to add and i will post it in the finished section. Then on to a base.
 
I think you and I have a similar approach to weathering and colour palettes; looking forward to the end product!

Looks very nice to me Scottie.....I wouldn't go any farther with it if I were in your Slippers....er....shoes. ;)
