Built for the 'snow GB'


really enjoyed this one since i got to try a few new to me techniques


Eastern Express BT-7 done with a white wash winter camo, done by mixing techniques using latex and hair spray


the base is simply a flat bit of polystyrene, liberally covered with pva and a tub of bicarb dumped on it


realised something i forgot to do.....was going to add some 'snow' on the oil drums and on the stowage on the tank before i took some pics.....too late now lol


one for scale

I really like this. Love how you did a kinda sloppy whitewash. I have to imagine being quickly applied in the field , they were not perfect looking paintjobs. What you did here is simple but affective. It looks great. The figures and simple base are very nice too. Kudos to you.
