Su 122 advice please!!!

A HUGE thankyou to Ron George for his webhosting!
I was going to add a winter finish, but like the way it is shaping up. It has just received 9 coats of drybrush, and is ready for a wash perhaps?

The kit was assembled 12(?) yrs ago. A very small amount of weathering has been done with oils around the front. Walk area's will be "tape-peeled" later. Sub frame parts arriving in 3 wks.

Welcome to the Armour forum.
it looks nice clean build there
what are the markings going to be and are you planning on putting it on a base?

Thanks Jon,
The kit has been in a fire, flood, 2 cities & 4 towns, and met about 10 girlfriends! All in the semi assembled condition!! I will just use the kit markings, as there are no supply shops close to me! I never had much luck with dioramas, but might attempt one for this! Have a bit more patience now...

Hey Iano,

I see you got through image hosting and posting unscathed. And a good thing too ..... nice looking work on this kit.

Thanks for sharing the pics.

Hi, Ian. Nice build you got there. Here's one link about weathering. It's not about winter camo though but I hope this wil interest you.

Thanks for the link Dwight, a great read.
I have only just bought an airbrush, I might try those techniques with the next kit I attempt!
In my pre-airbrush days I developed a layered drybrush style I used here, starting from black and working upwards through greens to earths and finally silver highlights. Makes a great texture on the kit that mimics steel. The other beauty of it was I didnt need to stop between layers, the tackier the paint the more visual the effect. Shows my younger impatience I guess!!!

No, problem.
