The Mako2 is still haunted from time to time, but I had to give this some paint and take it for a spin in the garden :)

Will be looking at painting the camo pattern tonight.

For that, I have made a test paint. I had two kinds of green I thought would work out and tested with them. I think I like the darker one better :)

Need your opinion guys. I'm more or less done with the green stripes on the hull and moving on to the turret.

Before I move on to the brown stripes, I would like your opinion on the thickness of the green stripes. cant figure out if they are fine as is or if I should thiken them a bit...

Jeez mate, I would be happy the way you are going with it :thumbup:
Once the lot is toned down/blended in it will be a stunner.
I have a book by Mig Jiminez that covers very late war tanks of all types & the PzIV with brush painted patterns similar to this are in it, so you go your hardest.

Thanks Herman :)

Didnt have an Airbrush handy, so I thought I'd try with a normal brush as I did when I painted 40K tanks. Although this is a larger scale hehe

Cant really compare them :)
