Strewth mate, I reckon you've got a few sheep missing from yer top paddock to even think about that paint scheme! Yer a ravin' nutter!!! I look forward to seeing how you manage this one without going stark raving looney!! Good luck young fella! Cheers, Sam

Evening chaps tonights bench time saw the turret recieve some paint from looking at the limited amount of ref pics of this tank under the tetris camo blocks there was a 3 tone camo so this will have to be done first i will be trying to follow the ref pics as close as i can first up primer Sand basecoat Tamiya acrylics 1 part Buff 1 part desert yellow 1 part white thinned 50/50 Mr Hobby laquer thinner Camo Nato green and Nato black Paints used This will be left for a couple of days to cure then on to the marathon masking task Dan B

Dan....to me,the execution of the Tetris ain't too bad......it just seems to me,you got too much dark green going on!!! Don't OVER complicate the darn thing!
Your ref pic has a lot of lighter,almost 'lime' green,and lighter brown/beige....keep at it fella....you'll NAIL IT!!!

I'm backing Dicky to the hilt on this one. It looks AWESOME. A pain in the A$$? yup. Frustrating? yup. Make you go blind? yup. But Dan, think before you prime. It really looks fantastic Man. Jeff T.

Dan..all I was trying to say was....you may have spotted the 'Base' camo,that the tetris goes over,but do you really need it,considering the predominant colours in the 'Tetris' colour scheme?Just have another peek at yer reference piccie,is all I'm asking?

Post by deafpanzer on Sept 9, 2013 21:42:19 GMT -5
Are you kidding me??? I LOVE IT! It will look toned down after you spray heavily thinned base paint or something like that.
I have to ask... how long did it take you to do the barrel?

I understand your feeling...if you have something in mind and it turns out completely different it can be dissapointing
however, I concurr with the guys, I actually like it a lot I must admit! What a chore to do all that masking no doubt! Luve it...looking forward to your second try...will be even cooler, quite sure of that!
Cheers

CB what you have said has helped buddy loads i was going a bit freestyle and did not really keep to the ref pics wish i had now i still wana try a second attempt at this tho as always thanks for ya advice Andy thanks buddy i wish i liked it as much as you lol the barrel took 5 hours over the weekend im hoping with the second attempt i can cut this in half due to hand painting Gary Thanks brother means a lot glad ya like it Boss Thanks buddy you guys keep me at it with all ya great comments Bob Thanks i was saying the same until i started to dislike it lol Wouts i hate it mucker when this happens but i think it only makes you a better modeller by being fussy and a perfectionist :? lol lets hope for a cooler second try As always thanks a bunch guys i was really frustrated last night and nearly launched it in the bin but with all ya comments have really helped Dan B
