More coming soon...!

Ah thanks mate appreciate it

 

The blue is mix I made myself of vallejo field blue, French blue, flat yellow and blue grey pale with a highlight of a light grey which gives it a kinda ice blue. using brown and black oil washes, it darkens it down to the final colour you see

I would have to agree with Firepower. I think the snow mud build up doesn't really line up with what happens on a vehicle traveling in snow. You might consider googling/binging some pics of tanks in winter.

 

That being said, your grey is just brilliant. It's a different looking shade and with your oil treatments, you've definitely hit a home run.

 

Your whole force is amazing looking.

 

Bravo!

Cheers guys!

Yeah I was thinking that about the snow... I wanted it to look like it had been driving through deep mud with it but after seeing some images I think you guys are right. Will have a play with it!

It's mostly the thickness of it. It doesn't look like snow, it looks like wet cement. I'd do like Honda said and cruise Google galleries for tanks in snow. Here's a good one:

Just being able to see the cracks between treads (and the brown of the mud therein) would help a lot. As for the guard around the tracks, the interior left side's minimal clinging mess seems way more reasonable and 'realistic' than the thick clumps along the exterior sides. But in both cases, you'd have to pry, pop, and/or scrape off the material rather than simply repaint it. I dunno how much of that you are able/willing to do...confused.gif

Yeah I had a try earlier, it will scrape off. Will take some time though but I think it will be worth it.

Appreciate it dude, thanks!

Always glad to knock the better painters down a peg...I mean, "help."

It'll be a real pain getting the snow out from between the treads though, I imagine. That's where the mud shows through, after all. sleep.png
