Landships II

that looks great!

really crisp model

Very nice, fine weathering.

About the tracks: I sometimes do it the other way around: first paint the gun metal
paint, then do a rust wash, then a silver dry-brush, and finally pastels or even more
hefty "earth".

But I think your method works as well!

All the best

Nice!

As always with weathering, it's the cumulative effect that does it!

Howdy Eric,

Thx for properly re-arranging your Group Build thread Your project looks just dandy, and in Brailee scale too! I must say I have never used the majority of the products you so kindly showed in your thread, and am happy you shared their application with us all....
I particularly enjoyed your 'doctoring' of the roof of the driver's cabin, which is funny since I usually enjoy opening hatches and the like...but your attention to such detail is admirable.
Now, just so you don't think I have forgotten the 'nits'....{you did say "...Don't hesitate to comment, make some remarks, I am also here to improve myself....", correct? I have a small one and a slightly larger one, and I will keep them short. The first is regarding your washes. Since it is more difficult to properly wash a kit that is in the Braille scales, I think you could have maybe fine-tuned your nook-and-cranny work by adding some 'pin' washes to compliment your overall wash applications and maybe stepped-up the visuals in places like the track tensioner, idler wheel mounting brackets, rear drive sprocket axle mounting, etc...
And the second is about your track treatment. As our good Peter kindly shared with us, a potentially more accurate rendition of the appearance of tracks on this machine would seem to be a little less 'shiny' {your drybrushing of Tamiya XF-16 Aluminum} considering the literal daily 'grind' that most of them had to go through on the muddy battlefield of western europe....

Please take my or Farthing's worth of input as the kind, constructive words of support they are meant to be. I certainly don't have the courage {nor the eyes} for building in such dimunitive scales, so I really don't have any legs to stand on with my grumblings...I just thought I'd do my best to share so that maybe a discussion about washes and weathering / painting / detailing, etc would grow out of it!......
For the record, your project is a fine addition to the ranks of the first official Landships Group Build
