Hi Pals, thank everyone for the support received so far, this time, I continnuo with wetathering, I add some pigments, I have placed deposits in place, traces of leaks from the exhaust pipe into them, and start with the treatment of tracks, and transfers applied..

Some shots of the process....

Very nice looking Francis, neat work on the tracks, (rubber tracks it would appear). You might give the right hand track a little bit of help gripping the drive wheel, teeth and tracks don't line up correctly. Apart from that only compliments, a nice job on Zvezda's beast-killer.

:goodjob:

You have reason, the tracks are vinyl (the most classic and cheap ... sigh), and to unite them, they were so tense they did not do the saggy effect, so I had to push them down with pins, but have moved the town and have been "decentered" I think I can fix it.

Thx for your kind comments, cheers Gremlin :thumbsup:

Update 9

Hi Pals, a small update, I have placed deposits in place (as it had taken off in handling), the tracks and joined and wheathered (at least in the main). The decal kit brings, is also fixed.
There are still small details to complete, and I have to see how it looks generally clean photos in detail, to correct and / or change what I like nice little

Who needs indie link tracks. Not you Francis. Nice work with rubber

Maybe it's because all my life I assembled kits with vinyl tracks (I'm not so young ... sigh), and there were the others. Now I have tried two, one of Bronco for Sherman (not recommended), and other AFV for a T-34, and have been a nightmare, but in the end I rejoiced.

Anyway, I think it could have been better.

Thx for your kind comment Yeoman,cheers :thumbsup:

Hi Pals,

A new update, this time, I decided to change the decal that included the kit, because although historic, I seemed somewhat poor and ridiculous, as if it were a race car ...

He had other leftovers from other kits, and now I like more as is.I started to add traces of snow and fallen leaves, and a more aggressive weathering process with pigments.

Either it's a very calm and windless day, or those leaves are frozen on. :shutup: Joking aside, that's a lovely job Francis. Although I have my own method for making mud, I'd like to know how you did yours.

Rearguards,

Badder
