    4Bo at the ready!!

    Its too late for this build but the wheels of a tank are a great way to go to town with the modulation extremes. I always aim to paint the wheels with light colours to contrast against the hull's darker colours. Use two or three different shades on reach wheel. Also highlighting rims, nuts and...

    Its NOT a Stug!! Tamiya 1/35 Brummbar + Easy link Ostketten tracks

    Difficult to tell from the photos Bob. Looks good from here. I personally like a bit of primer showing through here and there as it adds to the faded worn out look. If your a happy bunny then I'm a happy bunny too :smiling2: :smiling5:

    If it were me then the green and red brown would be chipped to the yellow colour. The yellow colour chipped to the red oxide as JR says. However it depends on how extreme you want the look to be. You may just want to leave it as is and just dirty it up a bit

    Help needed with a simple scratchy build, please

    The ones I have made in the past have simple brackets (three in total) riveted to the pack panels. Then using two planks of wood for the support. Quite a lot of the time the crew would then add a length of track to increase the height of the boards and support more stowage. If you have a look at...

    Help with using a drill to clean wheels?

    Hi Bob These are a set of wheels I did recently. The top right one has the tyre taken off entirely. I used the como/dremmel drill with a discus shaped drill bit and gently created the groove while turning the wheel on the end of a toothpick

    This was my last bit of casting Mike for a part the carpet monster got It would have been easier to buy another kit and take the part from that :smiling5: Apologies for hijaking your blog Mr T. Will remove if need be. :tongue-out3:

    Items you have bought and at the time thought they were a good idea - but never used.

    I have Jakkos rivet maker - never used I have MikeC's hand jig saw - waste of time This thing which was a complete waste of money and loads of weathering paints and fluids used once and never seen again.
