Thanks a lot. I did rather enjoy painting the camo. Not sure my compressor enjoyed it quite as much.\ said:This is looking real good Shaun.
Thanks. I have a couple of methods to try now.\ said:Stretchy bandages are good for camo netting ( cut piece out square say 10 cm x 10 cm and gently pull the corners. You can spray paint with earth colours and accepts pastels too then wrap around barrel once dry and paste with a bit of Pva glue ( drys clear ) you can tease out some strands to look like leaf etc
Hope this helps

I think some form of dark wash is going to happen.\ said:Noone suggested a darkwash?
I like the panzer iv. The armor makes it look mean.\ said:Definatly like the camo effect ( tri colour ) looks nice with all the armour plating in place too
Well done

Good plan! It'll transform it, especially the running gear.\ said:I think some form of dark wash is going to happen.
just a few tips Shaun , I myself like to darkwash the model as I build it. When everything is dark to start with I feel it gives the model depth and shadows. Affter the whole thing is washed you can then begin putting you color scheme on and it will be set back into all the lines and crevices. As you have already painted the model , I suggest using very thin water colors like acrylics to brush on some dark. It will sink into the crevices but not do much to the overall paint job.\ said:I think some form of dark wash is going to happen.
Thanks for your advice. I will try to remember that for the next model I do.\ said:just a few tips Shaun , I myself like to darkwash the model as I build it.
