Just the figures remain!
🕑 Added 2024-12-08 15:01:14 +0000 UTCMy friends, I finished the terrain and integrated the tank into it.
The base was first post-shaded with greyish earth tones (Tamiya Flat Earth and Buff + German Grey) and then flooded with enamel earth washes - the same tones and principles I applied to the tank. A bit of dry-brushing with Rainmarks Effects was employed to add light to the raised areas around the crater. The boulders and smaller rocks were then picked out with acrylics as usual.
Once I glued the tank to the turret with PVA glue, I adjusted the tracks and fixed them with superglue. Streaks of oil were painted with an enamel black wash following the direction of gravity (more or less, lol).
All I have to finish now are the figures, I'll start working on the first one this evening :)

Thanks so much! And I was having doubts during the entire process! :)

Thanks a lot! And yeah, thinking ahead and having a general plan of the finished piece helps a lot during the process. The creative part starts the moment you open the box, not when you start painting the built model :)

They're a US infantry set from Alpine :)

I've started adding very thin wires for electrical cables and shell shots on the outside of my armour. Thinking ahead of time of a final look makes a heck of difference.

The damage on the road wheels and the missing hatch covers are such small details that completely transform this from a "model" to a piece of art. Watching your videos has completely changed how I assemble my models, now with intentionality and purpose, rather than just following the instructions page by page

Very realistic

Never thought the underside of a Panther could be this interesting!!! Enjoying this, thanks!π

The streaking on the panther just makes it look so good.

This is NOT modeling but art. Your color palette with all the rust color variations & nuances is just incredible. Well done my friend.
