Von Ribbontrop`s Panther A

[SA Dave]

Thanks mate,...

No no no,.... Pups theres method in my madness :gogo

The spray will be a light browny buff effect for the dried dust and mud accumulated over a period of time washes will be done for splashed fresh mud and to add depth and shadow to break up the flat colouring and pin washes for grease and oils spots around the wheels` nuts and bolts etc etc

See i have it planned ,..honest :hmmm

As long as you know I am happy just ogling at your builds :woohoo:

Thank you for your great comments,....some more work,...this time wheels and tracks

Very nice Andy! Looks like it's sitting in front of a mirror.

What's the deal with the tracks? Are you assembling them in sections?

Tom

 

[AndyFettes]

Cheers,Tom,....Yes these tracks are going to be glued with Tamiya glue so I'm basically measuring them up against the wheels the ones beyond that will be glued with a rubber gel glue so they are flexible so as to simulate sag and weight etc,( if that makes sense ) They are in sections of four or five right now cos these magic tracks have mystical sink hole and punchmarks in them and I find them easier to clean up that way.

[Sherman 18]

What color did you use for the track? Looks just right.

 

[AndyFettes]

Cheers Dave,

Sherman, they've been given a base coat of Vallejo black brown and a wash of reaper Black wash

I going to give them a bit of old scool dry brushing and then some Alclad metal on ummmmm the shiney metal parts,...sprocket teeth etc etc,and on the front of the track itself...you know what I mean.

Then Ill finish her off by actually doing the side shields and then finally some Tamiya buff dusting
