JackG Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Great job, and that tissue work replicating the canvas top is just brilliant. regards Jack 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bullbasket Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 First class job on the build and weathering. The tarp looks nice and dilapidated. John. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackMax12 Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 They worked those poor little trucks to death and you have sure captured the look, the weathering is perfect. Excellent job and I love that tarp, sure adds to the finished product and it must have been a real chore. I just love working with tissue, white glue and paint....NOT... but it certainly does look like a real tarp doesn't it? Take care, Lloyd 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrancisGL Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 As a pal says, I think it's the best Opel I've ever seen, look for a real truck, simply, and also IHMO the best treatment / painting with Gray Panzer I've ever seen. Cheers mate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sanfrandragon Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 Wonderful finish and weathering to the truck, it looks really worn out and as others have said the tarpaulin looks 100% real. I like the load too, complete with Wehrmacht stamps on the boxes - where did it come from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewCJ50 Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 Best tarpaulin ever - period (with apologies to Sean Spicer), how did you do it? Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I drew the boxes in Adobe Illustrator, then print, cut out and fold them. The Wehrmacht stamps I found on net. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew Hi Andrew, I glued the 2 ply tissue paper with student glue, then I glue another layer of tissue paper for all the edges to strengthen it more. When cure just spray some primer or flat coat to protect it. Straps make from masking tape, buckle and rings made from flattened thin wire. Here is the the only in progress photo for the tarpaulin.

Badder Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Dunno how I missed this, but better late than never.... and better a model by Sinhow than by me, ever! Stunningly superb work. The weathering is simply perfect, and as everyone has commented, the tarp is truly magnificent. Models of this quality deserve more exposure than they ever get. Thanks for sharing, Rearguards, Badder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
