Carius Posted May 23, 2017 Author Share Posted May 23, 2017 Building the last details and final retouching: I put the new russian machine gun on place, SKP lenses and taillights, pericopes lenses, small chains on smoke grenade launchers, towing metal cables and antenna. In order to simulate dirt and aging the follwing colors and enamel washes were used: XF-52 flat earth (Tamiya), dark wash, brown wash, earth nature effects (MIG), and Vietnam earth (maru technics), All the products have to be highly diluted and try to let the pigment accumulate in the corners and other areas. More photos soon... 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bullbasket Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 I don't think that I've ever seen a model of a Finnish T-55 before, but it's come out really well. I know through following your WIP, that you've put a lot of work into it. It's also been interesting to see the detail difference between the T-55 and the Tiran-5. Nice one. John.
