I've been working on my late war stug 3g, first stage has been base dark yellow and modulation. I've used the ak ducklegelb modulation set as I had it left over from doing the e90 fenders. I've tried to be a bit less "garish panel line" with it, remains to be seen if this approach will bare fruit when I complete the camo, weathering etc! Next up will be chipping, then coat of future, hairspray and the camo. ImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImage

Cheers guys.

A little more progress, I've finished painting the lower, wheels, tools etc. Next was the camo, I'm really struggling with the ak paints, the mix is very thing and it's hard not to get runs or overspray. This is a fairly rough draft as it's only the base colour without modulation and some bits need ammending/tidying up.

Things have gone a bit late war! I've finished the camo and done the chipping, going for the very well worn look. Also painted and fitted the tools and added the lable to the fire extinguisher.

At the moment the camo looks very bright but the filter should help thereImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImageImage
