Soviet Panzer IV

Re:Soviet Panzer IV-Opinion sought

Hello-

I just attached unditching beams to the Panzer IV, glued in placed and I used stretched sprue to make them "tied" to the vehicle. I don't want to leave it the light grey plastic color- what could I do to change the appearance? A light brown wash?

Thanks in advance, and thanks for looking :)

Re:Soviet Panzer IV-Opinion sought

IMHO if you're leaving the knots visible, then brown of several shades would depict rope. If you're going for wire or cable, then shades of grey and rust would be in order, but the knots probably wouldn't be correct. Looks great, BTW. (y)
 
I´m sure that you really had a funny time with that green color.... seems very atractive to me.

But I think that you have to weather a litlle those ropes :) ....
