TERRY'S T72M1"LETS ROLL"

Re: TERRY'S T72M1"HULL OF A DEAL"

This weekend I worked on the upper hull which was a snap to build. I added wires for the headlights and mesh and PE to ther rear deck. The rest of the work was painting. I started by painting the hull Dark Green. I then shaded the various panels and other areas in lighter shades of Olive Drab. I then put on a coat of future clear coat. When dried the whole thing got a black oil wash. Next steps will be to dry brush with light shade of Olive Drab then another coat of clear. Here are some pictures of the progress. Thanks for looking and comments are welcome.

Re: TERRY'S T72M1"PROGRESS REPORT"

First I hope these pictures are better. Second I have been working on the turret and boy does it have some wicked seams to fill. I had to do a lot of sanding to smooth things out. After the sanding I had to re-texture some of the turret, but at least the seams are gone. I also did some more panel shading, dry brushing, and a little chipping on the upper hull. I knew it wouldn't last, but I have found some details that I will have to add. :geek . Ok here are some pictures and thanks for looking.

Re: TERRY'S T72M1"PROGRESS REPORT"

Makes me want to paint something green!

It's a real challenge to give a single color any depth. I'm still not sure I'm satisfied with it yet.

:hmmm
