Nice work with the pigments. the mud looks almost as if freshly scraped.

Some basic painting on the GMC, Ireally like the combination of grey and OD

Slapped some white wash on my Tamiya Sd.Kfz.251/1 Ausf. D; thanks to @oldwarloke for the inspiration on his 1/16 Das Werke 251/1 build.

One of the best brands on the market, I use them more and more

Marco_Schaper · 14 October 2023 18:13

My information is green on the right wing and red on the left wing. I was looking for that information before, so I still know it. I found it on the RC Universe website

Still some way to go.

Marco_Schaper · 14 October 2023 18:24

I finished the tracks today, now I prepare for painting what will start tomorrow. The building-part is nearly almost finished, maybe some small parts missing. That was the easy part, I hope the painting part will work as well.
Have a good time✌️

Thanks Marco! That’s what I also think. Usually it’s Green, only on some planes it’s Blue. So a drop of Tamiya X-25 will do the job.

Engine deck with add Tamiya PE screens, Tiger Model Design small lift hooks and Meng bolts to secure screens.

And as far as I know, it’s the same for boats. At least in the US.

The colour of the light bulb (glühbirne) is hard to see from a distance.

Although I have two tubs full of aftermarket US WW2 stowage, I had to “roll my own” to get 3 tanker’s rolls to attach to the back of my T19 105mm HMC. These are made from 2-part epoxy Kneadatite for the two bottom rolls with the outside one from my resin stowage. The straps are .7mm and 1mm masking tape with PE buckles. Not too bad for my first attempt at making stowage.
