Re: OT's 'Little Tank'
Thanks Mike but it is not as good as it looks. You will note that it's all straight lines & small ones at that.mightymikeD wrote:That's some seriously fine painting there OT... your hand is clearly steadier than mine!
I have closed up the hatches & added viewing slit, lamps etc.
The next stage is to apply the sand colour to the camo & try to tone down those silver tracks.
Still can't find any soldier type figures. I might pose the crew figures having a conflab.
More pics when significant progress has been made.

Re: OT's 'Little Tank'
Not much happening of late, been a bit ill.
But I got some paint on & then started adding small stuff.
Will try to get the tracks on tomorrow.

Re: OT's 'Little Tank'
I do like a bit of wear'n'tear on my AFV's (listen to me - sounds like I do loads )mightymikeD wrote:That's looking nice and weatherbeaten...
It could do with some stowage too, tanks always seem to be covered in tarps & loot.

Re: OT's 'Little Tank'
Sorry Mike, I completed this the other evening but forgot to post picture. I got distracted blitzing a Spitfire & planning the next three.
You can never have too many.
Anyway, here is a quick pic.
Glamour shots to follow when I get a chance.

Looks great, a diorama or even just a shot in the garden might look pretty awesome
