gary66 Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Good day people. It's almost Christmas. Hope you guys are done with xmas shopping and ready to exchange gifts. I'm sure you all are aware that I am building a quick dual build of the JS-4 and the KV-5. Well, I have finished both of them. I planned to do a finished post for each separately and since I have already posted about the KV-5, here's the JS-4. The kit is built out of the box except for just one small thing, The gun is from my Panda Hobby's Obj 279. I bought Painting Guide for AFV by José Luis Lopez Ruiz and after reading the book cover to cover once, I decided to apply the unique Black and White technique. For the weathering, since this was an actual vehicle, I wanted to show it with some weathering to depict a used vehicle ( trials, exercises and what-have-you ) Well, that's about as much I can sum up about the build. More informations and more photos and bigger ones (4000X3000) can be found on my blog - http://modeller-innovation.blogspot.co.uk/2014/12/trumpeter-135-js-4-low-slung-beauty.htmlPlease do have a look and thank you so much in advance for any feedback you guys may have. C&C are welcomed. Just be gentle... LOL. Thank you for always supporting and for the kind words and various encouragements. Until the next launch. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
