Sdkfz 233 armoured car. Completed

[locomotive]

Not sure if this the right place, but this is one I completed earlier.
I was quite proud of this, until I seen some of the work on here!
But hey, I like it and it's good enough for me. (Im sure my wife has said that to me in the past…)
Apologies for the quality. I'm useless at that stuff. (I'm sure I've said that to my wife…)

Excellent build, brilliant camo job! Well done.

 

[BarleyBop]

proud of this,

And rightly so! I particularly like the flag draped across the back and the rope holding it in place.

Great looking build. I like all the little details, the flag and opening storage compartments (with gear in them).

It used to be part of a small vignette. But that got wrecked in our house move.
The camo was done by brush.
I've tried airbrushes but I just can't get on with them. Too much faff on for me.

by brush

Have you tried drybrushing? With a bit of practice, you can get some soft edges similar to airbrush... if that's what you are looking for.
It's worth getting a few sizes.

I like all the added details, and the draped cloth effect worked out nicely

I dry brush a lot. Had good results with cotton buds for applying camo too. Necessity is the mother of invention!

...and that is the only thing that matters.

Speaking for myself, I am my own worst critic. I know it is in fashion today to say 'stop competing with yourself' but that is the only way to hide the shame of losing!

Totally kidding about the last bit, but there is a point...you strive to improve and learn with every bag you open. My "next kit" is always my best ever.
