Rangerboy83 Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 Some Pics of my latest finished project. IBG 1/35 TKS. Had a few dramas with the build. Upper superstructure wasn’t a great fit and was a bit of effort. Painted with HATAKA polish Army paint set. Weathered with the Mig and 501 oils and a mix of Vallejo and Mig pigments. The figure is from Alpine. Lovely quality figure. I haven’t made and fitted a rifle sling. Might do in the future but I’m not gonna lose any sleep over that. Lol. Removed the Hotchkiss machine Gun and left the rear decks up and added the German infantry NCO to try give the impression the vehicle has been abandoned and the crew has extracted. Any feed back always welcome. Thanks for looking. 25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrancisGL Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 An "ugly" vehicle for my taste, but a vignette very good in all its aspects, the vehicle is very well finished and the figure looks fantastic. Cheers mate 👍 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buzby061 Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 A great rendition of an odd looking vehicle, it looks as broad as it is long. Saw one in the flesh last year, it’s a tiddler! Pete 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zigster Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 Nice looking TKS. That grass is a bit...too bushy :-) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rangerboy83 Posted April 11, 2019 Author Share Posted April 11, 2019 Yeah I didn’t spend to long doing the ground work. Didn’t see the point cause the base is so small. Grass is a bit to rich a green too and could do with some other vegetation and debris. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryan71 Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 Looking good wish I could paint figures as good as that 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rangerboy83 Posted April 11, 2019 Author Share Posted April 11, 2019 Yeah the figures I paint with Vallejo mainly. I try and paint at lest one figure every time I do a build. So I’m always improving hopefully. Some good videos on you tube that help with figure painting and the books from Mr Black publications too. That’s the ref I’ve been using to help me. 15 minutes ago, Bryan71 said: Looking good wish I could paint figures as good as that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
