Hi all,
my first post here, although I have been lurking for many many years. I typically build aircraft and ships, but in 2022 I had a new energy to build tanks so I've recently started doing 1/35 Armor kits and thought it worth sharing here one of my latest.
This Tamiya kit was very crisp and all excellent part fits. Made for an enjoyable build.
I gave weathering a serious crack and I found the more I did, the more I saw that needed doing. I think I could keep going for another week on weathering which would send me insane. Anyway still learning but happy with progress so far.
I used Tamiya XF-60 Dark Yellow and Tamiya XF-88 Dark Yellow 2 for the overall coat. I'm using AK Streaking grime for some of the weathering and Tamiya XF24 Dark Grey for the paint chipping.
cheers
BT
