Thanks Eric (Lee, LOL)…..no issues that I can see, it’s just hard making sure you get full coverage.
Cheers Paul.

Looks good Tim.
Sorry Tim. I love the new avatar but I'm sure you didn't need a name change to go with it :hugging-face:

No probs Jim. I‘ve done that myself many times before
Cheers John….getting interest into plain green with no markings may be a stretch though….
…and now it’s as green as Kermit……
and one a bit closer….
This was just two 4BO shades, dark one from below, normal one from above, followed by an oil paint dry brush using a shade mixed from sap green and titanium white….track has just had a coat of dilute VJ German cam black brown.
Still have to pin wash it, and maybe add some restrained streaking…..the armour plate texture is actually poor spray technique, but it looks OK so I’m leaving it alone. The tank was two weeks old at the trials, so chipping won’t be in evidence…..and the ground was frozen, so no mud……it will get sooty barrels though….

Not easy, you mean?
Yep Jakko, it certainly isn’t easy being (this) green…..
Hi Tim
That is a great looking paint job. The various shades do add interest to a plain, slab sided tank.

Yep, but as the saying goes, it’s not as green as it’s cabbage looking Gerry :thumb2:
Thanks Jim. It’s since had a dark green pin wash to bring out the details (such as they are) a little more. That has also darkened it a little overall, making it look a little bless minty :thumb2:
