Re: Steyr Flak 38
Thanks Philipp and Vincent.
Flak 38 is just about finished. Shields will be attached once some paint is applied. I also assembled the bed.
I have not painted a figure in over 2 years. Enough procrastinating, brushes came out and I dusted the cobwebs off. The figure without the shirt was very challenging and took several hours / days to paint.
Thanks
Shawn

Re: Steyr Flak 38
Very nice results on the figures! Did you use acrylics, oils, enamels?
Good detail work too.

Re: Steyr Flak 38
Bryan- I use Acrylics. MY favorites are Vallejo, but I used Ammo paints for the figure without the shirt. It work out well, but I still prefer Vallejo.
Thanks Vincent.

Re: Steyr Flak 38
This is why I never participate in group builds. I can never finish one on time.
I cannot decide what I want to build next so I decided to work on this again. NO promises that IM going to finish it though.
I really had some problems with the Leadwarrior kit. Lots of the prices were bent. I decided to add a covered window using greenstuff. I had to scratchbuild the cab doors. I'm not 100% sure on how I am going to paint this.
I gave everything a basecoat of German Gray. I'm going to try to show the cargo bed in a wood grain so I applied three different wood colors for the base color. I'm not sure if I am going to use oil paints over this. Every time I do that, I seem to have a problem removing to much and it removes the base colors.

Re: Steyr Flak 38
Good to see you back on this Shawn. Some projects just like to stall you at every opportunity it seems.
You're definitely not alone with this, I have unfinished builds from long before this site's predecessor was even founded...
