That’s a very fine looking build! You sure nailed the look of a tank operating in North Africa, and the mud camouflage really completes the look. Bravo! 🍻

Very nice! What did you use to do the mud camo? Thanks! At first I airbrushed random spots off tamiya buff over a hairspray, then rubbed it off here and there. Then few sand and dust colored oilpaints over those areas, kind of mapping technique. |

Hi, long time no see. I would like to show my tamiya stuart, "el diablo". Build almost oob, only barrels were replaced and scratch build windshield box was added, as it was in diablo. Also photos showed that it had a mud camouflage which was quite interesting to do.  Gaaaaaaaahhh!! Man it's all THERE! The details, the paint and then the weathering and thank you for describing your weathering process with the mud camo. Karma to you +1. VERY well done. I'd also like to take this opportunity to welcome you back to the forum Jukka. It's been a long time since I've seen you on here and I'm looking forward to many more opportunities to catch up with you and your builds. Here's the red carpet roll out brother...  |

If you need some tips where to visit, please just ask. DEFINITELY! Two places are a must for me to visit... a tank museum an hour north of Helsinki and that island fortress south of Helsinki. I will be in touch when time is closer. Thanks man! |
