Great model of an interesting tank, looks fantasticside by side with the stuart. I think the yellow and OD combination make an excellent representation of the timeframe. Cheers, Ernst.

AMX-13 French Light Tank - Tamiya 1/35
Ernst replied to PlaStix's topic in Ready for Inspection - Armour
Always a pleasant surprise to watch your models. I wish I had more time to spend on the forum, to absorb new ideas, techniques and mindsets like a sponge to fuel my inspiration. If I missed any of your posts or any other britmodeller's post for that matter, please do understand that I don not have the luxury of time like I had in 2020. I hope I'ĺl be contributing in a couple of months, the love of modelling never dies. Cheers, Ernst. -
Great Model Stef, I really like the contrast between the weathered lower hull/turret and the clean upper hull/turret. Best of both worlds, Cheers, Ernst.

Amazing work Francis, What a beast. Just to think that it's predecessor roamed the streets of Berlin in 45 must have send shock waves to the western allies. Your models keep on progressing, wonderful work mate, Cheers, Ernst.

"A METALLIC BEAST", PANTHER AUSF D, ZVEZDA 1/35
Ernst replied to FrancisGL's topic in Ready for Inspection - Armour
Hi Francis, Good to hear from you again, when I have time I shall see into your previous work. I'm curious. I'm so busy right now but it's good. A Spanish colleague of mine, a former chef in a Spanish restaurant that I actually frequented 15 years ago turns out to be a modeller as well, armour in 1:72. Very proficient with excellent (hand) paining skills, I'll invite him to the forum as well. This hobby will always haunt me, it will never leave me alone. I wanted to diverge into maritime modelling earlier this year but in fact I'm building ships in 1:1 scale for work and I'm sailing them too, this is so much fun. Crazy world. Yes, I really like those models that make you think "what's the story behind this", it makes a model individual and interesting. So many approaches, respect to all of them. I hope you're doing fine and happy to see your next and previous work, Cheers👍, Ernst. -
Panzer II Ausf C - Dragon - 1/35
Ernst replied to Nenad Ilijic's topic in Ready for Inspection - Armour
Top job, as always. well researched. Excellent weathering job and photographed, Cheers, Ernst. -
Amazing work that shows some depth in terms of evolution of this magnificent beast when you see them side by side. That's some proper soft edge airbrushing skill. An excellent addition to your collection. Cheers, Ernst.

Great model of a quirky french tank heading for Compiegne. As usual exceptional painting skills, I really like the colour too and the presentation of course. Cheers, Ernst. -

"A METALLIC BEAST", PANTHER AUSF D, ZVEZDA 1/35
Ernst replied to FrancisGL's topic in Ready for Inspection - Armour
Hi Francis, Excellent model. Once again your trademark weathering skills turn an affordable kit into a gem. Yes the camo scheme looks a bit late war but then again, I've seen pictures of a panzer IV-G with disc camo. It's probably on one of my hard drives, well needle and haystack situation in order to retrieve those. Finally some time to check what΅s happening on BM, hopefully some time for modelling in the future. Cheers👍, Ernst. -
Kitbash redefined. I have to trysome of those akan paints, they look very convincing. I remeber a very civilized discussion by akan on armorama about accuracy but I digress. Highly inspiring. Great model Сергей Никитин👍, Awesome beasts, those t-34's. Cheers, Ernst.

Vanatorul DeCarre R35 Transformat Heller 1/35
Ernst replied to Milan Mynar's topic in Ready for Inspection - Armour
I love to see some interesting and unusual models. Great work, Cheers, Ernst. -
Great colours on a beautiful model. You've once again proven that it's not about resources but about being resourceful👍. Cheers, Ernst.

Stunning work Francis, this is probably one of the best models in an already very impressive collection. I really like your choice of colours, the vibrancy of the green and red brown tones and the somewhat faded dunkelgelb. Weathering is especially spot on and chipping is just awesome. Great choice to have black and white backgrounds, it really affects the colour perception. And yes, the FrancisGl signature vegetation👍. I really wish I had as much time for modelling as last year, struggling to find some time. All my projects move at a slow pace. Awesome work, Cheers mate, Ernst.

Ernst replied to Redcoat2966's topic in Ready for Inspection - Armour
Awesome work and incredible painting and weathering on this amazing beast. I'll binge through the W.I.P. later . Cheers, Ernst. -
Impressive work on both kits and very well presented as usual. Cheers, Ernst.

Thanks for the WIP photo's, I highly appreciate that 👍. I also like your rendition of the Kare Kusa Iro (vallejo calles it "parched grass") and the way it works with the other colours. Kudos for supporting local paint brands and mixing them yourself, that's a great teacher. With true acrylics there is indeed some variation, I couldn't work with vallejo's midouri green. Even with a 3mm nozzle and needle it refused to be sprayed properly. Once again, thank you very much, I've got 4 free days ahead of me so finally some long awaited modelling time. Cheers, Ernst.

Hi Mate, thanks for the quick response. I mean the green on the SPG. I like these green tones with a bluish hue in it. Now you've mentioned, what colour did you use on the figures. There's a nice contrast between the helmets and the uniforms and perhaps the helmets themselves too since the one on the last figure appears to have a different shade. I've just recently started figure painting so this is all new to me. Cheers, Ernst.
