when applied at the factory it was over primer in the field it was over the bace color of the tank

Thanks Bubbajoe,I wondered how the Germans would do it,I have read different articles that seems to confuse more than resolve,but the Germans were pretty smart and efficient most times.So you in building a Tank would follow the factory method of Primer,Zimmerite,base color,camo pattern?

most of my builds are in field as far as camo go and i normaly ony apply zim as a last resort

applied zim to the turret here are the pics and the tool i used

very nice' very nice indeed, what putty did you use.

some more progress

Bubbajoexx,that was very cool.I have seen sections of that video but not the whole thing.The barrel length is amazing up close,and when they fired just earth shattering.These guys were so young,but what a site to behold,could you imagine running into these guys on a farm road in a Sherman,instant death.And your milliput zimmerite looks great,must be tedious to make the pattern,I would think someone would make a tool? I will be watching your progress with interest,cheers Blake
