phildagreek Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Not the Academy kit, but the basic Tamiya M113 with the HIAB from the Academy kit and then lots of other bits and pieces from the spares box, some scratch building etc. I really like this. Based on photos of Australian M113's from Vietnam but I've seen various US ones from the same period. http://i257.photobucket.com/albums/hh231/51models/IMG_4587_zpsw0njrbrs.jpg Brush painted using Humbrol enamels. Thanks for looking. 27 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phildagreek Posted July 16, 2015 Author Share Posted July 16, 2015 always amazes me when someone gets results this good with enamels. what's the secret? Thanks, very flattered. Personally I use thin coats of paint, a little pre shading to create lighter areas, lots of drying time between coats, everything varnished between lots of thin weathering coats. And no rushing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
