Looking great Patrick your doing a cracking job. Loving the polka dots may I ask how you applied them cheers John

Thanks John! I was going to spray the dots, but ended up using a 000 brush

Cheers John - I take it that a Pig's Pizzle is an East Anglian delicacy?

Such a beautiful looking cat Patrick. As a side note about the aerosol can, decanting for airbrush use is a valid option.


Your dark yellow looks absolutely spot on. I don't know how you do your pics but I'm peanut butter jealous sandwich. They are magazine quality.

Thanks Aaron, you're right about decanting, I keep meaning to do it!


As for the pictures, I use my phone for the in-progress shots & an app called Open Camera to adjust the exposure etc - it's something well worth downloading.

Thanks Moni! The colour is Humbrol enamel 103, but I've tried some Vallejo paints & their Iraqi sand (don't know the number) is pretty good for a scale Dunkelgelb.

[John Rixon]

Hah, there's always something more to do! Fantast job, Patrick, looks a mean mutha!

 

[0ne48thtel]

I have just caught this one Patrick and I got to say it looks the dogs dangly's mate.

 

[Dave1973]

That is one fine looking tank!

 

[PaulTRose]

that camo is looking brilliant! nicely done

 

[Benhur]

If using an airbrush can you tell me which one please.


Looks like a great job you are doing.

 

[dubster72]

Thanks guys! It's a big beast - usually I pop them in cheapo lunchboxes to protect from dust, but this one doesn't fit!


I use a Harder & Steenbeck Ultra 2 in 1, a very nice airbrush to use & a doddle to clean.
