Goctha not so much experience with washes but I did want to give it a shot. But yes I am enjoying myself its my therapy in a way.c.rainford73 wrote:Mr Fox I like it, sometimes you just don't want to overwhelm the model with stowage and battle damage. Been there done that.
Not sure if you have any experience with washes, very thinned out paint that can accentuate the models fine details.
You can apply it around bolts and nuts and panel lines.
Remember to have fun, and if you make a decision that you later want to change, simply change it.

Here is a photo shoot I did really quick with my Panzer IV along with my other tanks in my collection.

Re: Panzer IV Project
Ahh.....and so your project was to paint a Taigen/Heng Long Pz IV F2, then? I wondered. Looks like a fair finish you've applied there. Have you any other enhancements, refinements or upgrades in mind?

Re: Panzer IV Project
Yes sir that was the last of my projects. I dont plan on doing anything else to the Panzer IV except adding side armor skirts. After that Ill be done. Maybe Ill get a Sherman and work on that one day.43rdRecceReg wrote:Ahh.....and so your project was to paint a Taigen/Heng Long Pz IV F2, then? I wondered.

Re: Panzer IV Project
Great looking finish using a rattle can,I’m more used to my air brush,problem with that is setting everything up up and getting it adjusted just right!
