A little more creativity for this project . I picked up some second hand unpainted Sherman’s and a Pershing from one if the guys at the local gaming group, so decided to crack on with these . So a rattle can (Tamiya TS28 Olive Drab ) , colour the tracks , then an oil wash and decals just about gets these ready to be “winterised” .
For the first lot I wanted them heavily done . I used an old white enamel paint to give them a whitewash paint coat , then used some of the AK interactive Snow , and Muddy ground material.
I have left the Pershing without the whitewash and snow effect but have used some winter my/snow static grass tufts.
I enjoyed doing these , and for a first attempt I am happy with them . I have found a box of other late war US stuff in the stash - so that will get added to the winter project in due course .
Very nice indeed, Dave. I like the whitewash paint coat , and will look up the AK interactive Snow, as I'm still not convinced by the white flock I've been using for my 10mm Ardennes/Battle of the Bulge project. Your basing definitely looks more snow-like.
ReplyDeleteYep - worth getting - the flock is the stuff on the Pershing . The Ak snow is more a paste that dries
DeleteThey all look brilliant Dave. Nice work.
