Sorry it's a late one John, been on me holidays gettin' rat faced lol. Very nice mate, very nice indeed. Love the attention to detail, from the dead leaves in the gutter to the dirty ground work. Going on the looks of that gun breech it's seen a lot of action, a great build you should be proud of so a big five from me bud.

Have fun, John

Hi John

The 3 I was referring to was actually 3 manufacturers - Dragon, AFV Club and Tamiya which all do a 1/35 kit of this half track. By your answer though I can tell it's the Dragon kit - Great job again.

All the best

Paul

 

[geegad]

Sorry about that paul but you was right it was the dragon kit John

 

[tr1ckey66]

No worries John. I was just interested in which kit you'd plumped for. The dragon offering looks a winner. I've got the AFV Club SdKfz 251/1 in the stash and it looks a good kit but the Dragon kit looks equally nice. The Tamiya kit is a simpler kit but, as ever, engineered perfectly and looks the part, although it does not have all the whistles and bells of the other 2.

 

[geegad]

I don't think you can fail with any of them three and at your level it will look good. Look forward to your take on this subject Paul Many thanksJohn

Amazing job looks great . I'm working on a mini art dio at the moment and struggling to choose the correct colours for the pavement and the brickwork . What did you use ? Did you have to mix the colours from more than 1 colour or are these colours available off the shelf? Any advice would be appreciated

Regards

Buck

Great stuff this! The halftrack is excellent, the weathering, chipping etc is spot on. The figures are really well painted. Overall, a 5 star job!

hello bucki used tamiya colours its been a while and i cant remember the colours i used sorry bud but the white wall i know i used a grey primer then i did the marmite trick then sprayed it white and washed of the marmite to reveal the grey colour

and as for the rest i mixed a few colours together to get the look it doesn't have to be bang on colour because when you weather the model it will tone down the colours

hope this help probably not coming from me

good luck and look forward to seein what you come up with on here

many thanks

Don`t know how I missed this one but you`ve done a superb job geegad , as said halftrack and figures look great I also love the miniart base I`ve had my eye on that one for a while basic yet gives so many options for a dio.

Marmite
