Gary, he did photshop it...from the field to the grey background...Cheater!!

LOL!!!! Not!!!


Great stuff Rob!! Always a pleasure to see some WIP from you!!! Can't wait to see more!!

[onur2234]

Great stuff thank you for sharing us!

[406 Silverado]

Thanks fellas, your comments are most appreciated as always.

Well the JP was on the shelf asking to be painted ....so I applied some AK rust and she was kind of happy. She was still kind of naked so out came some camo colors.









Will do a bit more then back to the Panther....and T-62....and M26 Pershing....and Sherman's....man I have a lot of queens.,

[deafpanzer]

It looks great already. Bet it doesn't feel naked anymore... there are certain few things I like to leave naked. LOL

What's your mailing address? So I can send you my Pz III...

[406 Silverado]

LOL send her over Andy, she'll get done one of these years...LOLOLOL ...I have sooooo many that need to get finished. I figure if I send some bench time on a few at a time then I'll get some done this year. Then the next batch...never ending

[Deleted]

Hey Boss, I just love the colours on the Panther turret, pink ! Soooo cool
The Jagd looks very nice too, part Zimm' part rust... This'll be another stunner

Will they be on a dio together or will you separate them at birth ;D

[spud]

Awesome rob

[406 Silverado]

Thanks Spud and Steve

Steve these will all be separate models, although I do plan on someday doing a couple of rust buckets or wrecks together.
I have six or seven models on the bench/shelf that I am working on at the same time so it will be a bit until at least one is done.

[modelfreak72]

That's it I give up! First a sherman then a t-62, now german stuff what is this tease time??!! Looking good Rob! keep the factory rollin!

[sollie]

That JP is a killer.You should make it Pri 1 man. Keep it up and share a lot :-)

[tolgadogruer]

Well,Rob I really can't know where this is gonna end! Every model you make takes the bar higher buddy! When I say,'Ok.,that's the best kit he has made.' you come up with a better one! But my favourite is panther,I must say.The broken steel looks amazing,but the colors are awesome!

[406 Silverado]

Sorry for the VERY late reply fellas. Been very busy round here and not much time for the bench, especially with the bad humidity here.
Tolga, Thanks my friend. Good to see you back mate.

Will try to get some bench time tonight if possible....but what to work on !!!!!!! Finish the Sherman...or work on one of the cats.

[406 Silverado]

jackwagon and Mark, thanks fellas for the kind words.

Too many shelf queens that need working on. I also have a couple of KV's that need to be finished and or painted. Should get those rolling as well. Might use the one KV as a German tank and do a review of the Lifecolor mod paints on it.

[406 Silverado]

Well I managed to squeeze in a bit of bench time and painted some wheels, base colors and also did a bit of chipping on the M26 Pershing. Will try to do more and post a pic or two up soon.

[406 Silverado]

Quick update on the M26. Managed to get some chipping done on the front end, wheels not on her yet as they will get chipped and weathered along with the lower hull....when I get more time in.

[robbo]

Very realistic looking Rob

[deafpanzer]

Way too real... I quit!

[406 Silverado]

Thanks fellas, but the pics suck. I took them quick before heading out and forgot to change the settings. Still had the ISO set to 1600 or so.
Will take some better pics soon. won't have time for the bench next couple days, in-laws still here.

[bbd468]

Rob, that is just too freakin real looking man! How DO you do it? Just amazing to me.

Gary

[danb.]

[AndyArgent.]

Lovely stuff Rob. some cracking effects mate.I still have to try a rusty panzer and you inspire me to do so every time. Allways have something else on the go though.

[wouter]

what? The JP turned into a M26? :-O

great chipping and rusting though ;D

Cheers

[modelfreak72]

Awesome work yet again Rob! One of these days I would like to get together with you and watch first hand how it's done, been trying a little on my own,...... I suck!lol! ;D

[406 Silverado]

Sorry for the very late reply gents, but you know I've been busy with non model stuff eh.

Awesome work yet again Rob! One of these days I would like to get together with you and watch first hand how it's done, been trying a little on my own,...... I suck!lol

Guess I may have to hold another scratchmod rusting seminar/day. I did the last one about two years ago with some Ct. fellas who joined in. I have a video that never got posted of what the event was like, might have to post it on youtube someday.

ok I did squeeze in an hour or so of painting.....wheels that is. I painted the black rubber on the T62 and Pershing wheels. That's about as far as I got.
While trying to clean up the dump...um the hobby room, I came across a couple...a few , shelf queens. Looks like I will be busy well into next year just trying to finish these off. Been itching to build a Tiger I OOTB and may just start another one. Can't hurt to have another Tiger on the bench eh. ;D ;D...oh yeah, there is that pesky Pz III and lots of IV's that are dying to get the full paint and weathering treatment. This hobby is very addictive...can't wait to hit the bench full time next month.

[wouter]

did I read Tiger I?

I'm in ;D

Cheers

[legend]

What about the karl??
