Tamiya T-55A

[Iron Mike]

Spasiba, comrades! Here's what the afternoon session yielded. I sealed the turret and added some MIG Dark Wash to the recesses and panel lines.

Beginning to look grubby enough. :laugh: I also used some assorted pigments on the lower hull in preparation for the tracks, but that's another episode.

Do svidanya! :drinks

I think you're just trying to empty out some space for the upcoming road trip :drinks

Looking pretty interesting. Can't wait for a flat coat so I can take my shades off.

Cheers, Christian B)

BAM!!!! THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!! Looking real good Mike. I just panel shading. It gives the model depth and more pleasing to the eye.

Time for a quick update, tracks on!!

Still a ways to go with the weathering, need to flat coat things and add a little soil. hyeah

Thank you, Dusan, Erik, Sherm, James and Terry! I'm still messing with details, here's the tow cables from Voyager Model.

The copper braid bends easily and looks right.

I used the Tamiya ends for the center, that way, I only had to use one package of Voyager to make two cables!! More this weekend!!

That copper does look good. So often these tow lines look too thick or frayed.

Really nice job Mike, I'm a likin' this!
