Hi Guys
this is the first military kit i have built since i was a kid( used to build all the airfix tanks)

and this is the first time i used a air brush (as you can probably tell) always used spray cans on my cars and locos, tried to add a little weathering to gun and added shading to crew, bit rubbish though ...seeing your models i need to get some info from you guys on ..

have now got a spray booth and mask and all set to go (have ordered 1 72 dora !!!! woops)

Don't knock yourself, this is a great looking build and the paint is spot on!

What paint did you use on the shells & cartridges?

Nice work Bazer, I think that is a very nice build. Not being a big airbrush user myself, I am failing to spot any deficiencies in your paint work on the railway gun. Nice work mate.

Hi Bazer,

It certainly doesn't look like your first time Sir, your finish and the model etc and fantastic, that thing looks huge, and as for the cartridges, I thought they where actual brass...

I am impressed, seriously, this is a good all round model. Only crit from me is that figures look too clean, a bit of shading and they will look even better, maybe a slight wash on the gun itself to tone down the paintwork but overall a superb great build from me.

Thanks for comments guys . It helps ,I need to learn about washes and adding shading to figures.

the spray paints are great if you can get them they also do a copper shade that i use for my loco funnel caps.

Hi Bazer this is a little cracker actually, the paint is very nice and in 1/72 as well. I the 1/35 trumpeter version which tends to take up a little bit of room but in 1/72 i imagine that will not be an issue. Great work i like it.
