Peter Marshall Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 Just to give all the Centurions something to worry about - the Trumpeter T-64 mod 1972 I have got the masterclub resin tracks as well, but i'm not convinced i'll use them - they seem very fragile Anyhow work commences unsurprisingly with the running gear and lower hull - with nice details, and some PE Finished one side (i.e. stage 1 on the instructions ) Peter 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Marshall Posted May 14, 2016 Author Share Posted May 14, 2016 Today's work, completing the hull dozer blade Then the rear Engine deck Glacis plate Finally started clipping together the MasterClub tracks - can't really recommend them, they are very fragile Peter 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Col. Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 There looks to be plenty detail in this one Peter. Pity about the after-market tracks being more work than worthwhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Marshall Posted May 22, 2016 Author Share Posted May 22, 2016 Decided against the Masterclub tracks, they just aren't worth it, so on with the Link and length tracks On with the other sponsoon, and the rest of the PE to complete the lower hull Finally started work on the turret Peter 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Marshall Posted May 28, 2016 Author Share Posted May 28, 2016 Today's work - first finished off the turret Then a coat of Ultimate Black Primer over everything Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Marshall Posted May 29, 2016 Author Share Posted May 29, 2016 Today's work - starting with the Black and White technique. Started by spraying the black to white gradually Then with Washable white and black add some chipping / highlights Finally sprayed the green thinned 50% with Ammo 'Transpirator' to make it translucent - the end effect is nice and subtle Leave this now to fully cure.
