Hubba Posted June 2, 2019 Author Share Posted June 2, 2019 A couple of quick photos, this is where I am at the moment. There probably wont be much progress this week as it's a 5 night-shift week and the D-Day GB starts soon so what little time I have will be fairly intensive but I do enjoy having a model or two at the build stage while I'm painting another and swap between them A bit of light shading The base coat So cammo next and then on to the weathering Cheers, Andy 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hubba Posted June 14, 2019 Author Share Posted June 14, 2019 Been busy but progressing slightly Tried replicating the cammo shown on the Zvezda illustration sheet provided, not entirely convinced by it (looks like Mr Blobby to me) so need to give it some thought, strip and start again or modify what I have. I suppose I should try modifying it first 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hewy Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 It is looking very nice Andy, great bit of painting👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue705 Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 Looking good, bit of filtering and weathering will tone that down 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hubba Posted June 16, 2019 Author Share Posted June 16, 2019 Right, I tried a bit of dot-to-dot painting and I think it's an improvement. Probably stick with this and get on with the weathering I'll take another look at it tomorrow and see if I still like it. On the plus side, it seems to bring out the zimmerit more 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlaStix Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 Hi Hubba. I reckon your camo looks great. I quite liked the first version but I think the one in the last phot above does look better. Kind regards, Stix 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badder Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Hi Andy, First off, brilliant modulation and base coat, and a completely acceptable attempt at the 'Mr Blobby' camo. I think that would have looked fantastic after filters/washes and weathering, but I understand how you might have been unsure about it. I've bailed out of disc camo scheme because I feared the colours were far too garish. I also like your 'join the dots' camo and I'm sure that will turn out fantastic as well. I will say that the ratio of dunkelgelb is a bit higher on the Elefant's LHS in the photo above and a bit more green or brown will balance it with the RHS. Of course, I'm being pernickety -possibly a bit of a Dumbo. Rearguards, Badder 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rearguards, Badder Not at all , I quite agree, though I can't see both sides at the same time so I'm OK with it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hubba Posted July 1, 2019 Author Share Posted July 1, 2019 I haven't been slacking, just not uploaded progress due to , well, stuff happening recently Anyway, here is where I am at the moment A light fading of buff Tamiya and decals added Details painted, pin wash and a bit of weathering with oil paints, followed by a couple of coats of Dullcote So, further weathering, mainly pigments and I should be done Cheers, Andy 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
