Morning guys! As the title says the T-62 isn't dead yet.I've been playing around with mixing paints with the base color trying to get the faded look i want and not happy with how they look so far.Then again i've been mixing them on a pallet and haven't try AB them.  I do have one question! Do i need to seal the base coat first so the thinner doesn't affect it? |

Normally I'd say it shouldn't be a problem, but since my trouble with the BT-7 I've changed my tune to 'if in doubt, seal it first'

Can't go wrong with having a protective coat as an insurance policy!  |

Guess who is back? LOL Your 62 is looking good. Keep in mind weathering will help blend the chipping together very well. It will look great at the end!
