Thanks G & Roy!! Just finished something else so this one seems to be back on deck!! Should have something to post soon.

....sorry for the delay, holidays, family, work...whatever, all excuses! LOL!! Been a little busy it seems. So, with that here is my update:

Some camo....





Then of course I need to fix some things...back and forth, blah blah...the dots!!





Then some blending...



Everything looks better in black and white!!



Time for some filters...washes...other assorted stuff!! I will try and keep at this so that this little duel can move into stage two.

As always, thanks for stopping by!!

Thanks gents!! Appreciate the feedback...camo is not a strong suit for me!!

 

[JohnSimmons]

I wanna do that!! Very nice T, what did you use for the blending mate?

 

[TRM]

Hi John!! Thanks!!! The AK Late War Set comes with two different Dunkelgelbs. I tooak the darker of the two and mixed 70/30 water to paint, applied a light misting to the darker areas and then took the lighter of the to paint and went 50/50 or so (lol...just added water, shook it around and said..."oh that looks ok : ) and then gave the whole thing a misting payingcloser attention to the horizontal surfaces!!

Cooool I have that paint set, I was going to try out on a King Tiger

 

[TRM]

Great set. The darker Red color is a bit thin, well mine was. I just backed off the pressure and shot a couple light coats is all. Definately looking forward to you having at it!!

Thanks Roy!! I took a small thin piece of styrene card stock and dill a few random hole in it and gave a quick spray with the AB putting the dots wherever they looked good!

Great idea. It's hard to tell from the pictures, small dots ;D
