not quite finished, not quite how i wanted it to look & not quite the colours i wanted
but i think if it was someone else's & they said to me what do you think of that, i'd say nice
it's growing on me the more i look at it
anyhoo here we go.............


so now i'm going to paint the tools.
so what do people use as a laquer?
cheers
lister

Very nice lister.

You know they always seem to look better to other people at first, but will grow on you over time. The colours are always a bit bright when fresh, but they will blend a bit and will become more subtle if you use a wash on it.

Well done, I think it looks great.

Lister,
I agree with Scalawag. A great pattern that with a wash will come out as completely authentic. ;o) Good Work!

Really nice job on the camo scheme Lister,
as already said, a tan wash for tritone camo will really tie this together well.

Keith

thanks guys
after a day i'm now liking it a lot!
thanks for the wash tip, various washes on order
i'll update next week if they turn up in time.
also the tracks.......
there plastic & primed at the moment & look kinda pink (i'm thinking of you alpha! )
i'm thinking metal silver with a rust wash. watch this space
p.s sorry keith if you were hoping for a report on the brake fluid

Great looking Pz III, great start on the paint...

Derek

thanks derek.
a quick update
just to say i've painted the tools & given it a few coat's of matt clear.
but after a chat with scalawag, i've stopped being a tight arse & splashed out on some proper decals
so just waiting for them to turn up

Looking very good, cant wait to see this all dolled up.

you being a tight arse Mickey, I dont believe it

thanks t.k

i know mate, ironic really when you look at how much i spent on paint
what difference does another tenner make?
edit: i was still a tight arse by picking the decals with the most spare numbers & balkan crosses on it
