(Sort of) daily update?
🕑 Added 2020-01-20 22:30:52 +0000 UTCHey guys, today I was a bit busy with other things so I only managed to write a script for the last Rutscher video, but I wanted to show you my ideas for those 3 models I mentioned yesterday.
The T-35 is a Mod. 1938 variant with conical turrets. It would be painted in 4BO and although these tanks were fairly new and haven't seen much action, pictures show they sometimes got pretty dirty. The second photo of a Mod. 1935 shows what type of weathering I would do on the horizontal surfaces. This would be a complete out of box build as the Hobby Boss kit is pretty much perfect in every way.
The 1/48th scale Crusader is from Tamiya and I would paint in Khaki Green Nr. 3 as seen on the color sample from AK, but significantly lighter. There would be a lot of dust and sand weathering all over the tank and I'd use fine powdery earth for thicker sand and gravel accumulations. I'd also add some stowage. I also have some photoetched details from Hauler but overall it would be a pretty straightforward build.
And the Tiger F13 is well... you can see for yourself. It's extremely beaten up, supposedly has several shell impacts at the front, and has a very unusual paint scheme - Panzer Grey which was later covered with Zimmerit, repainted in Dark Yellow and then resprayed with Olive Green. Most of the Zimmerit has flaked off showing the original grey color. There's also a large yellow patch at the back where the stowage box used to be. The area under the side skirts is also yellow. Commander's cupola has a 3-tone scheme as it has been replaced at some point. The gun barrel might've been replaced as well. This model would be more involved and I'd probably split the construction into 3 videos - fixing what I messed up, zimmerit, and then the full build. Here I'm actually hesitant how people would react to the unusual paint scheme and I'm even starting to doubt if I'd do a good job, but I will most likely try it on a spare piece of Tiger hull side. I'm probably sounding totally ridiculous, and I'm most likely totally overthinking it...

Guess where I got the idea? 🤣

That weathering on the T-35 looks exactly like the mud & twigs stuff you introduced us to with the KV-220 😃

As I stated in the previous message, any one of them will be FANTASTIC !!!!!
