To get the exhaust guard damage affect, I heated the guards with a hair drier until they were just starting to soften, then pressed the shaft of a thin electrical screwdriver against the edges or wherever I wanted a crease or dent.panzerfahrer wrote:Saxondog wrote:Smart job, Innovative and resourceful. Really well done and I'm sure the Zimmerite thickness and texture varied greatly so the idea of a standard thickness or pattern being absent means it is as professional as possible.
The exhaust guard damage is a nice effect as well. I like the look very much,and certainly the light will play hell on the tone. I have pictures of my Tiger taken at the same time just different light and the result different tone of Gray,even blue in some light.
Thanks for that Sax, Im looking for a 1/6 scale German half-track, an Sd.Kfz. 251 in kit form , plan pack, or just 1/6 scale drawings, any Ideas,Doug.
