This is another of Miniarts Valentine tanks. This time a MkIII III. Its built OOB and unfortunately a head lamp and the drivers peep hole door went AWAL and due to back problems have been unable to crawl around on the floor under the desk to find them!!!
The paints are DOA's colour chip matched British army colours, Light sand and S.C.C 14 - Blue-Black. They give a great finish but for me, at the moment are a pain in the bum to spray. They are ready to use, but I find them to be much thinner than I like and are still getting to grips with them.
The dust is vallejo pigments mixed with a 50/50 water/matt varnish and airbrushed on.
So here is the scene. Libya 1942, middle of nowhere and out of gas! Looks like a long walk home.
