Thank you "MASTER" Your models are top notch!! Like the way you use those colours on that E10 but i have to ask you...how did u made that cloth-cover on that gun (sherman tank)???

http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j223/OldRUSHfan/Hello/wave-smiley.gif~originalThank you Razzie!

 

 Well I got me a old junker .50 call out of the spares box and painted the barrel in the general color for the gun. After that, I used small pieces of kleenex to cover and drape it from the bottom working up (using water, little at a time). While still wet I tied it off with some thread and after it dried I  carefully pulled the thread off and gave the cover a diluted light coating of white glue. When it dried thoroughly (hard as a rock) I sprayed some future on it, painted it, weathered it, and then used some white (no fuzzy) beading thread Tinted with tamiya clear yellow and installed it in the same places where I removed the original thread.

 

 I DO have something new coming up, but I’m spending too much time on the internet  - so, I’m not sure how soon it will be.

That's a very nicely finished model and a great technique, nicely explained! Thank you for explaining it for the benefit of people who would want to replicate or try it. That is what this site is all about, and the best spirit of modeling!

I would suggest that you do away with the figure. It simply doesn't make sense. You already admitted that you don't paint them well, and in my opinion, it actually detracts from the model as it is. There is no way the German army would continue to operate such a badly neglected vehicle! A much better choice would be to get a civilian figure and positions it as if it is looking at the "wrecked" model like one would gaze upon a museum piece. That would be a much stronger presentation.

Lol,true what u say...i had 2 figures with this model! i switch the arms from each other and made this crazy commander. Problem also is i can't paint figures very good. i even buy a dvd from Oliver KovĂ cs (MXpression) Still my skills sucks on on those faces. Maybe he is a commander that forgot that the war was over ;)

 http://www.gifmix.net/3d-smiley.php?image=love-3d-smilies/0016.gif for me this is just "LOVE" at first sight.
 
 Even though the real thing probably wouldn't have lasted long enough to look this wasted, I can really appreciate the talent used to get the "LOOK" displayed here - extremely interesting.
 
Artistically, this is really, really nice.

Wow,fantastic job on those weathering techniques,a real wreck,the figure is painted great,but why a commanderif it supposed to be a scrap heap vehicle ?An in service vehicle would never look that bad.

Just askin.
