...been working on a couple of HL Pershings.
Both fitted with a tamiya barrel KV1 tracks ( to look closer to ww2 spec)and cast effect on the turrets/hulls.
The finished ones my battler so has an IBU, servo recoil etc

The third ones a WIP Tammy Super Pershing.
The sprockets are Bulldog ones...work a treat with the tracks...the tracks themselves are a little too wide, but are within my budget, unlike the proper metal alternatives...

Beautiful cast texture. What method did you use?

It’s just filler applied roughly with a finger then sanded back

Bought a tube of the Tamiya putty and was not really pleased with it,bit too soupy for my likes,prefer Squadron green or white though they seem to have a tendency to harden in the tube with age making them unusable after 5-6 months.

Man, I love me some Pershing's. They look fantastic!
I've been thinking about using the KV-1 tracks for a while now. I'd have to do some grinding because of the hull brace bolts, though.

Love the casting texture. Nice looking Pershings. Still looking for ideas what to do with mines
