brushing off the salt, you can see how wet everything is still.
needs time and patience.
This is coming along really well. Excellent so far! Your PE work and the painting process have been dazzling. I look forward to watching this finish transition through it’s stages.
Yes, I too agree this is coming along nicely can’t wait to see this finished. I have the Trumpeter late SU152 version in the stash, hoping mine turns out at least half as good as yours already is. These Russian oversized and weighted vehicles are some of my favorite flavor to model. Thanks for sharing and posting your work here!

thanks for the encouraging comments Gentlemen, still some way to go with the salt technique stages, these fresh red stars will get fractured and toned down in the process, but you’ll still be able to make them out.
third coat of another shade of olive drab over the second layer of salt. let that have time to dry before the salt gets brushed off.
Is that Stug III you posted a picture of a conversion for a movie?
I think it’s created for re-enactors by re-enactors, but I can safely say it would be available for movie hire, that may cover the build cost, and potentially cover the build costs of further vehicles.
