20MM Pak 38 Build Completed!!
Posted by Abastyr on Tuesday, June 15, 2004 4:23 PM
Comments are Welcome, I love to hear both good and bad feedback.

Take a look at the Wheels...You'll think I"m crazy, I was expirimenting .... I hope they came out Realistically Muddy. I can't wait to try this technique on a Tank...

Tamiya Red-Brown + Nestle Quick Powder + Rosemary Flakes (from my wifes spice collection) to simulate some small sticks/brush in the mud.

Anyways, tell me how you think it turned out..I like it, but would like some feedback from you all.

Very nice Andy. I for one would have never thought of NEstle for a mud ingredient. Upside is though you can always dip the model in a glass of milk for a quick flavor boost.

The model looks great! Nestles on the wheels. There's a t-shirt in there somewhere. "Lick Your Wheels"

very inventive.

I didn't really think of it..I was looking for some flower, and we were out, so I looked for the first thing I could find that was powdery....in the end I like it better than flower...

Nicely done Andy. The worn metal look is very well done.

Personally .... a chocolate covered tire sounds quite good to me.

Thanks for sharing with us.
Happy Modelling and God Bless Robert

Very nice. The mud you applied was done in a very reserved way, and even though it's quite muddy, it's realistic. I really like the weathered metal. Good job!
