My Newly Finished Build..
Posted by Abastyr on Wednesday, April 21, 2004 1:00 PM
I just finished my Pz. Kpfw. II Ausf. F. Take a look at it, and give me any feedback. It's always appreciated.

Thanks,

Looks good! I'd brush the tracks with some steel highlights.

very good job!!! my one concern is that on the front the top plate is very dirty, while the bottom with the spare track links is relatively clean.

I love the feedback. Both great feedback so far. This is the only way I get a chance to see what to do differently. My last model, people said the inside of the road wheels...fixed that problem, my next one I'll do the silvering of the Tracks, and the Underside front.

Keep the advice coming..

Very nice build indeed Smile [:)]
Definitely have to agree with Ron, some steel drybrushing is definitely a must on those tracks. Other than that, it's a very clean build. Good job!

Looking good Andy !!!

I only have one small comment and that's in regards to your commanders hatch. Most hatch interiors were painted the same colour as the tank exterior. Just something you may want to check your references on.

Thanks for sharing with us.

Happy Modelling and God Bless Robert

Love it! Just hit the tracks with the same metal effect you added to the upper and you'll have the total picture. Thanks for the pics.

hey great looking build!!Cool [8D]
my one suggestion would be to weather the decals a little, as the white in the balkenkreuz etc looks a little "factory new" and the rest of the tank does not; but maybe that's just the flash, in which case ignore me!!Tongue [:P]

now i know i'm about to get shot down in flames here, but i don't necessarily buy into this drybrushing of steel on tracks thing[:0][:0][:0][:0][:0][:0][:0][:0][:0][:0]...
it's fine if the tank was going through dry/dusty country, but when i saw some working armour at shows last summer one was a t-34, one a FAMO half track (a monster !!), the ground was wet and i saw no bright areas on the ground facing side of the tracks which would warrant dry brushing...
just something to keep in mind...

....incoming.....

Tongue [:P]
Kind regards, Nicholas

Nothing I can add as far as advice, the other guys have got you cvered there.
I can add that I was really impressed, great paint job and weathering. Made me want to build one myself.
