Super build Piotr, you did a really great job on the destruction side an how it looks, very very realistic … just as a finishing touch, could you do a final pic with the original image as a backdrop either on a PC screen or a photo copy on paper
Fantastic job, love it!!
Fantastic work Piotr. Nailed it.
Those marker cam sections look good … And give it a faded look as well. Nice ![]()
T90 cam is on … Looks bright in the pics but in real life it is duller.
And with a dust mist coat of 25% Tamiya buff , 25% deck tan and 50% thinner. Sprayed at low pressure with a large aperture.
Like how it turned out, and it really toned down the bright base colours of the cam. Willatt varnish it and then weather further with a general AK OEF/OIF wask then a pin wash.
Pepsi did not sponsor me ![]()
@Johnnych01 Thanks John, i think the marker gives it that “hand painted by a disgruntled REME pte”
The T-90 is coming along great!
Great job on the camouflage, Johnny! Looking forward to see how the light dusting will look under the washes - I think the details wil “pop” more.
Fellow sprue cutters …
The flying T90 is finished…
The original picture I was working from…
And the finished item…
And there’s you go … Really enjoyed doing this one … It has a nice dynamic with the idea of real movement…
Paint was a mix of AK RC and Tamiya for the main colours and some Vallejo for detailing. Washes by MIG and AK.
Tried to get it as close as possible and I’m pretty happy with the end results and tried to get the paint scheme as close to the original as possible.
Looking forward to seeing everyone else’s build now and looking back on the ones near completion or completed.
Just noticed I forgot the IR lens for the RH headlight, will do that now.
Dude that is awesome
Thanks Marc, very much appreciated mate. Glad you like it ![]()
Brilliant!!! But do tell us how you attached the tank to the ramp to get it it fixiated like this…
Thanks Bert, yeah… I thought I said how it was done …
Very simple really. Where the track bends up from the rear wheel station, I simply drilled up through the natural space in between track links up into the wheel hub and through that. Then I inserted 2 cut down cocktail sticks into those holes, and put yellow paint on the other end, pressed that against the ramp to mark it and drilled down into the ramp at the approximate angle …
I then pumped in super glue gel into the ramp holes and then inserted 2 cut to length brass rods into the track holes and pushed the whole thing into the ramp …that was it ![]()
Brilliant in it’s simplicity
, half expected something like that, but good to know for sure, one never knows when one may need such info!
Meanwhile, started on my base…
JC just showing us how it’s done! Lovely job on that! Really looks the business and an excellent reflection of the photo!
Thank you kindly to Mike, Sam and Bert …
That’s an impressive size base area. Bert … I remember how huge your LAV and IDF bases were !!!
Your flying tank came out great !!
Thanks Dan, appreciated ![]()
Great scene, Johnny! It looks so fantastical, yet 100% realistic. Super nice diorama and tells a nice and interesting story.
Congrats on a great entry! ![]()
