The latest Something I 've been doing.........MENG WW1 A7V and MKV Male - OCT 13th

Thank you for looking and the positive feedback, though not really deserved at this point as there is a long way to go.
I really just want to get back to U-boats and modern Russian armour!:bang head
 
Some more progress on both tanks........
The A7V has somefinal work on the roof cables but the base and the rest of the tank are ready for paint. Also, I am still needing to add a little more barbed wire.

The British MKV is finally ready for paint.
I added wood grain to the plain wooden beams for the trench crossing device as they were made from cut beams and being 1917 and on a tank I don't think they would have been polished smooth. I think they would have been quite a rough finish.

The beams and the frames have now been painted in black as a base for the steel and wood colors.
The tank is also finished . I have used a thinned down white modelling clay to fill the gaps and add some light mud textures before the black base coat. I started adding the black by brush to some of the areas like the gun cutouts and the track base plates where the airbrush might struggle to get all the angles.
