Hi all, here is my progress - I pre-shaded lower part of the vehicle with black paint and then made a base coat and some highlights. Next will come the fun part - winter camo!

Re: Tristar Flakpanzer 38t

The whitewash adds a little bit of depth to it!!

Re: Tristar Flakpanzer 38t

thanks, folks.

Here is my recent progress.

I did a wash (mixed MIG dark wash with some buff to make lighter tone), some faiding and mapping and small detail painting.

My wife says it looks really good now

Re: Tristar Flakpanzer 38t

I'm not sure how but I have completely overlooked this build until now.
WOW! Fantastic work on the interior, the PE, the painting and the suburb detail! Very impressive.

Question: where did you get the hinges for the covers?

Re: Tristar Flakpanzer 38t

Your wife's right. It looks really good.
Needs the tracks really soon now

Re: Tristar Flakpanzer 38t

thanks, Grendels, Myke and Quaralane!

Question: where did you get the hinges for the covers?

it is the same PE upgrade (Griffon model L35A016) that I used for engine hatches. Unfortunately PE covers do not match with Tristar so I used only hinges. It costs only 7 USD and there is enough hinges for transmission access door and drivers hatches.

I am not sure about the tracks. Still way to go with small detail painting.

Re: Tristar Flakpanzer 38t

This is looking better and better. Love the white wash. Been thinking of doing the same on my Grille.
Keep up the awesome work on this baby.
