Steve,
That is a superb piece of weathering, even allowing for the mad fungus, looking forward to the next update.
Mike.

Hi Everyone

Indeed Paul. I am pleased with the way the layering adds depth to the build.
I am about to try it out on a 1 72 build so we will see how it works out on that one Rick
Thanks for the confirmation on the colour of the Panzer Wouter. One side of the track has been done
Thanks Mike. Next update on its way

Very nice and dirty work Steve! Looks great
Cheers Steven

That is one tired little tank! Well done Steve. Rick H.

Steve,

Superbly fantastic OOB build...great painting and weathering...the pigments for the mud turned out very well for you. Wish I could master the level of painting that you achieve on my builds. Well done

Hi Steve.
I've been having a good look through this thread and what excellent work you have done.

 

[Si Benson]

Morning Comrade,
Well it’s certainly a dirty little thing! Coming on nicely despite the headaches of melting sponge and bits getting knocked off!
Keep it coming

Steve,
I don't quite know how you do it but it gets better every time I look in.

Flippin' nice!

Hi Steve
Strange about the foam reacting in the way it did. Must have been that particular foam as I have often used foam to mask "spaces". Glad you sorted it.
Weathering is superb. Difficult to model heavy weathering without it looking false and overdone. Your careful layering of effects has nailed it.

Hi Steve

She really is a dirty girl, all the better for having her boot(s) too.

Very well done, your fears should have been exorcised?

OOTB, small and well weathered, all in one.

Should be a winner where ever she shows

Regards

Steve H

Hi Everyone

Thanks Steven. Good to see you
Bit like me Rick - well knackered
Cheers Joe. I was always scared of pigments but after this build I am looking forward to using them more
Thanks Ralph. I hope it aids your recovery
Thank you Comrade Benson. How is your dirty little thing??
Good of you to say Paul. I hope you like the next update
Flippin 'eck Peter! Many thanks

 

[Si Benson]

Hello mate,
Looking very good as is. Making me want to grab one myself now!
I think the weathering is looking excellent already....can only get better

 

[Wouter]

I like how it turned out, well done mate!

 

[JR]

Ooh Matron will be thrilled at this .
I agree with Joe about wanting to acheive a look like this .
Well done mate .

Steve,
Stuff a dirty rag in the filler hole, otherwise you will be on your knees all week....
Love the realistic finish and cannot add to the other plaudits you have had. Now if I just build them, do you think anyone would notice if you painted them.....
Cheers, Mike.

Hi Everyone

I liked it so much I brought another one Comrade Benson See below
Thanks Wouter. Completed pictures on a separate blog
Cheers JR. Now you are a dab hand at oils it wont take you long
That was a cracking idea and I was tempted but I had to stick with the kit parts Mike. Your painting skills are far more than adequate my friend

 

[Graeme C.]

Just had a catch up Steve, Looks great, the weathering gives it a very well worn look.

 

[SteveH]

Great finish Steve

I am sure your construction isn't that bad?

It looks fine from here

Something I found for replicating small parts

Blue Stuff

Might be useful?

Your bench seems to be very organised up to 2021!

I have an ultimate Pz I to build as a retirement project one day.

Fruil tracks, full resin and Brass interior upgrade, brass turret and upper hull.

Great work on your Pz IA

Regards

Steve H
