Other than the hatches, and some replacement winterketten for the spare tracks - ready for paint!

Thanks for the comments guys. Phantom I didn't want to sound like an walking advertisement. The kit was primed with MIG (Ammo) grey primer, then the flat black (also Mig ) was applied. This was followed by flat white (again Mig). Both the black and white where thinned with Mig acrylic thinner 1:1, and also received a drop of retarder. The white also had a transparator added. The white, thinned with water, was also brush painted on raised detail. Hope this answers your questions.

Thanks John I understand . It's more about trying to understand the process than about the product.

It seems like I have learned so much more about painting from armor people than anyone else in the last few years.

I was recently pointed out to the VA transparator and although it seems to be such a minor thing , I think it will become more important in the my future painting .

It helps me as well to know what colors from what product range gives what results. I certainly understand the idea of not endorsing a product, but if it tastes like Coke, Pepsi ain't going to cut it, if you get my drift. Nothing wrong with stating the facts of what you use unless someone is paying you to use their products and you didn't. :laugh:

I've just started using Ammo paints to, and I love them. What pressure are you spraying at?

Thanks

Sorry Mike missed this post. I spray at 1.5 to 2 Bar. (20 - 30 psi I will drop it down to 1 Bar (15 psi) for very close work.

 

[JSteinman]

Worn white applied. I used Ammo flat white (non-washable) over HS.
