1/16 3d printed SU152 kit

[sollie]

So, again, it's been a while since I've been here with a build .

Those who have seen my other builds see that I'm into 1/16 for the most part . So now I have been working on a 3d kit from a good friend of mine in UK runnning a small shop called armoured models.

So as a base for this I use a Heng long upper I had in the stash. The kit comes in pritty decent printing quality,so as fare as sanding there is not much to be done, but some putty work is needed here and there, and I confess I could have put in more of an effort there . Mine will be a 'everyday' runner ( full rc) so I was not to keen on super detailing it anyway

After gluing down the struckture and all other parts it was primed and ready for paint

Continue with the paintjob

After letting it sit for a day, I kinda regreted the chipping approach I did.
the HS and getting a more worn faded look would have been better I think . Butt pushing on still

That is some fancy work you're doing to this sollie. One of these days I hope to be confident enough to tackle an armor build. Got a ways to go
