McMaster Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 Here's what I got for my birthday from my best mate (well I got more stuff non related to modelling): Q:"Don't you do only aircraft?" A: "No,I don't". However I will not start working on it till my AB arrives and till I finish the Phantom.And taking in consideration that school is starting in a few days that will take a while . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McMaster Posted January 8, 2016 Author Share Posted January 8, 2016 OK scratch the last sentence I wrote up there.I started doing some sub assemblies which I will paint when the AB arrives. That will be it for a while 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McMaster Posted January 10, 2016 Author Share Posted January 10, 2016 Allright I decided to do as much as I can before the AB gets here,and I was thinking weather its a good idea to let this be my first AB build,I'm thinking of rather getting a cheap 1/72 on which I will practice.Nevertheless here are the pictures (The Zimmerit which I made look destroyed is made with putty and the "rough" cast texture on the mantlet is made with MrSurfacer 500) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McMaster Posted March 13, 2016 Author Share Posted March 13, 2016 So I haven't touched the Panther in months but for some reason I really wanted to build it today,and so I did. I really like how the weathering on the rear came out: 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fleet Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 The chipping on the corners of the tank looks great, how did you do it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McMaster Posted March 27, 2016 Author Share Posted March 27, 2016 The chipping on the corners of the tank looks great, how did you do it? Thanks I painted it on with a small brush and silver paint.Using the "shaky hand technique" (pretty much what it says,try to shake your hand a little while applying the paint,makes it look more realistic.(I know it sounds retarded but hell,it worked for me ) and also,I used very small amounts of paint.
