[Guest]

Yeah! Is coming along very nice I like it the weathering so far. Will you made a little chipping effect?

Polux

Yes, there will be some chipping - that's next on my list. I still have a lot to do with this build yet, so stay tuned

 

[Guest]

Just a few more shots of today's progress. Still lots to do including the wheels and tracks which I haven't touched yet. Then there's a little chipping and some dusting,etc,etc...............

Thanks, mate! The streaks were fun to do.

Thank you Polux! The red is actually Vallejo 'Calvary Brown' which is a close match for red-oxide to my eyes. I must admit, it's my favourite colour right now,

Very nice Alex, the paintwork is nicely faded & muted now! The chipping looks good, as does the general wear n tear

Cheers Patrick

[Guest]

Ecellent work mate! may I ask which tracks you used?

I like the different coloring of the wheels

Cheers Benny

 

[Guest]

Great work

Thanks!

 

[Guest]

Thanks for the kind words everyone!

Benny - I used the link and length tracks that came with the kit. One side fitted, but strangely the other side did not; I therefore had to cut up some tracks links to make them fit.

 

[Wong Ryan]

Great work and love the weathering job. Have one in my stash ... and tempted to start building it after seeing your build.
