T90 'Z' TWEETY-BIRD

[HERMAN BIX]

Your figure painting is sublime, as is the rest of the model..

Cheers Mr Rat, I put it down to beginners luck, and fine raw products from Mr Raminator. Would have been a shame to ruin such good print work having them turn out like drunk clowns on the way home from a Mardi-Gras

[HERMAN BIX]

11/10 work all over, Herman. The camo and skin tones turned out perfectly, and I'm glad to see the garmonica in action too! I love the worn brass corners on the bellows, that's a really nice touch

It'd be great to see some photos of the whole tank as it stands now, get a bit of an overview and see how the details all tie together.

Cheers mate, that Bayan just needed a place to be since I got them. I learned a lot by doing the camo on those figures, got a bit of hindsight already so thats a plus.
I will do an overview of the tank soon

The figure painting art is a dark one that I am not a fan of, but its a necessary evil for these things we have eh
Im working on a bit of a display base for it now, section of road with a roadblock/checkpoint on it that should be ready in a week or two.

[Captain Morgan]

This is a very excellent and detailed work!

[HERMAN BIX]

This is a very excellent and detailed work!

Thanks Mr Morgan, not as good as some but good enough eh!
I have been working on a display base for it, but all I have so far is the asphalt covering on the cork sheet base & the roadblock concrete obstructions.
The plan to have some sort of weapon in the roadblock went into the Technical in my T72 build.
Waiting for a 'dushka" to come back into stock here to replace it.
Thanks for looking in

[Captain Morgan]

"dushka" - Are we talking about the dshkm machine gun model?

[HERMAN BIX]

yes Sir we are.
Commonly referred to as the Dush'ka by us that have no finesse with the Russian language
As is the U.S. M2 BMG is referred to as the 'Ma-deuce' , another slang term for a well known weapon.
Once my local supplier restocks I think a Dush'ka will look pretty cool set in place with this T90.

[HERMAN BIX]

Filling in time again!
This time by making a base for the T90.
A road check point.
Spare bits, plaster blocks made by using Lego bricks as forms, wire and balsa wood.
The roofing iron sheets will be painted cardboard.
Signs I got from a hobby expo 2 years ago

Still a bit to go but you get the idea

[Herr Dr. Professor]

What fun! Are you going to go into mass production of cement barriers?

[HERMAN BIX]

Much better with the roof sheets on & the worn paint & dirt on the timber.
Still to add the detritus of war and more dirt, road markings and the highway signs.
