Re: 1/35 Lindberg T-55 circa 1988, rebox 1989

Thanks for popping by Philipp Definitively drowning in sand, I just need to check on sand wave photos, choose a wind direction and dry off some sand to fill the hole once the T-55 has been interred. As for the rust effect Adam, a basic dark brown base coat then pigments for texture and a new product...

Re: Das Werks Borgward IV PzJg. "Wanze"

Superb work Shawn
The building, the vehicle and as ever the figures.
Cracking work and should be spot on when all assembled into the diorama.
How did you find the Kirill Kanaev figure painting book?
Looking forward to the final finish

Re: 1/35 Lindberg T-55 circa 1988, rebox 1989

Morning/Afternoon/Evening chaps It feels old Olivier! So, a quick and "dirty" build Everything has been stripped off and the fenders reduced with no mudguards All the flat horizontal plates have been left smooth The sides have had a single coat of thin glue and been textured with a stiff brush The f...

Re: 1/35 Lindberg T-55 circa 1988, rebox 1989

Too right Philipp ;) I have some new products to try for the rusting which have had some really good reviews on You Tube. I am getting the ""texturing" done as there really isn't too much to build. The AFV T34 wheels will need a little fettling to fit, but hopefully a little more over the Super hot ...

Re: Merkava Mk.3D Late LIC

looking good
