We are so used to it and never question it. Ya know... you can really screw with us. Do a 1/16 tank, do some forced perspective photos and sit back and watch us all bow to your superior detailing skills. |

Bill Im going for the giant scalpel this time around ....... more progress and it is really only a case of detailing up now. Hull parts are joined and I also added some cast texture to the armour ............   Also added my own engine screen for a beat up look . |

Thanks lads , what do you think of the colour ? is it ok for 4bo?

Post by wing_nut on Jun 2, 2015 14:36:33 GMT -5
WOOHOO...PAINT!!! Now why did ya have to go and ask a question like that. Is the color OK? May well be the original "can of worms" question. And I usually don't get involved with these. You know the argument... war time production, field mixes, blah, blah, blah. But it stuck me as being a little bright or yellow? Here's a T-34/85 I did a while back painted with a premixed "Russian Green". MM enamel maybe? long time ago. .jpg) |

Its probably the light thats giving it that look , the model is quite dark in natural light . Im just not sure what 4bo is supposed to look like as I have seen it modeled in many different shades of green ?

I have seen it modeled in many different shades of greenYeah that's the thing and why I said what I said about being reluctant to say.  Too many variables.
