next thing on the bench......German Armoured train from WW2.....Revell 1/35

have a plan for this...........i have quite a few german tanks in the stash and the one thing that always puts me off is doing a 3-colour camo, figured this might be good to practice on since it has flat sides..........and if it does go a bit Pete Tong i will practice a winter white wash camo to hide it all lol

This looks OK to me, just needs dirtying up a bit and it will be fine.

The dunkelgelb looks fine, a bit worried about the undercariage though. :grin:

latest progress

ive attached the 'turret' with Otto inside
ive been doing a bit of reading up, turns out its not a proper turret, it doesnt rotate, its fixed. seems that if they needed a mahine gun pointing in the right place they would just simply move one to an empty mount
Otto is from an Academy set of Battle of the Bulge figs, he was the worst one in the set, i had nothing else that fitted the very small hatch so i canibalised Otto for his head and shoulders
i decided not to add the radio antenna simply cos when i tried dryfitting it was a pain in the proverbial!
the few decals been applied and a good coat of matt varnish
next job is to start with the oils to tone down and blend, then it will be wash followed by some staining
im not planning on any heavy weathering, after all it was stuck on a train track not ploughing through fields like a tank so its just not going to get muddy etc
