Sherman II - 9th Queen's Royal Lancers - 2nd Armoured Brigade - 1st Armoured Division - C Squadron -

Oggi ho fissato la decals ( il numero 2 dietro la torretta è della Bison ) mentre gli altri simboli compreso il numero del carro sono transfer della Archer. Ho anche dipinto i cingoli con XF 1 a seguire sulla parte gommata ho usato l' XF85 (rubber black) aggiungendo  un pò di XF55 per schiarire . Ora ho mascherato la parte gommata  sia sotto che sopra per dipingere le parti in metallo .

Today I fixed the decals (the number 2 behind turret is the Bison ), while the other symbols including the number of the tank are the transfer of the Archer.
I also painted the tracks with XF 1 to follow on the rubber part I used the XF85 ( rubber black ) by adding a little to lighten XF55. Now I've masked the rubber part both below and above to paint the metal parts.

  1. Nice job Loris but I think It will be quite difficult to intall tracks if the side skirds are already glued together with the hull especially if thoses tracks are one piece vynil.
    I know you have already the good way to make it well ;-))

    1. Alain Thank you for your comment more than fair, but the two hulls are not yet glued and tracks are Modelkasten and will mount them just finished painting, then I will fix the crewmen in the hull bottom and then will paste the two hulls below will execute the various washes. However, post the steps.

    2. But probably the most interesting which will give all the realistic side of the vehicle lived.

    3. Certainly Laurent, the tank is not finished, now I'm also deciding which washes use to make realistic.
