Ozzy Posted June 23, 2019 Author Share Posted June 23, 2019 got a bit of bench time today, spent my time filling gaps on the figures and starting to slap a bit of paint on. I've started them all mainly with green parkers and White trousers, I thought I would brake up the white with some camouflage. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hewy Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 😁 I thought the chav on the right had 3 quarter length shorts, swollen ankles and base ball cap there for a minute 😂, foolishness apart your doing a great job on the figures Ozzy, 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he has swollen ankles that bad, he must be on the the same blood pressure tablets as me! There are some troops in my battle of the bulge KT, I'm thinking of adding some to my build. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Figures definitely bring a build to life, I'm no figure painting expert. I just slap a bit of paint on and hope for the best. i did a little bit more on the Motley crew last night, next step paint all their gear. My resin canopy turned up today, it fits a lot better than the kit one. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ozzy Posted July 8, 2019 Author Share Posted July 8, 2019 I spent the weekend finishing off this beast, thought I'd try some 3 colour camouflage. Not sure if it's totally historically accurate for this unit? I've got some Grossdeutschland decals left over, there's 3 colour camouflage on the early one. I found a picture in a book but that may be a late one, anyway it's on now and staying. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert Stuart Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 Looks like good progress there Ozzy. Think the colours scheme is fine, Star show something similar on their 35-900 sheet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I got to the fine lines they were a little speckled. Not sure if I will do distressed whitewash yet? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlaStix Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 That is really looking nice and busy Ozzy! Going to be a very impressive dio! Kind regards, Stix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzy Posted August 8, 2019 Author Share Posted August 8, 2019 With 10 days to go, I thoughed I'd better get a move on. I have weathered all the troops and the vehicles, the Tiger needs some oil adding. The street is flooded to give the look of damaged drains. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzy Posted August 11, 2019 Author Share Posted August 11, 2019 Morning all, ive been having a bit of a weathering morning, using various Mig pigments on the building to try and get that burnt out look. I've also made it a little colder on the scene, by mixing woodland scenics snow with Vallejo satin varnish. Nearly done. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hadn't planned on it Robert, then I picked up the Machine Gun crew for the bargin price of £10 and my summer turned to early spring. i used the fantastic sunshine, were having at the moment to take some outside pictures. I'm calling this one finished, I think. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
