'Easy 8' - NOT Fury !

Recommended Posts

Also on the bench just now is Tamiya's superb 'Easy Eight' Sherman, easily one their very best kits and IMHO right up there with their T55 in terms ease & quality of construction.  So not going to linger on the build except to say it was an absolute joy and all done in just three evening sessions.  So straight in to some photos of me slapping some paint on it:

Acrylic satin black as a base-coat.

Tamiya 'Deck Tan' on the facets that will get the most fading from sunlight & weather.

Ammo of Mig dark OD base coat.

Ammo of Mig acylics modulation which looks very stark just now but will calm-down a lot as the washes, filters and weathering are added layer-by-layer.

 

As ever thanks for taking the time to look and / or comment, more later in the week hopefully.
