Excellent work so far guys. I'm really enjoying this build!
Here's an update on mine. (1/72 Italeri kit...) First an overall shot that gives you an idea where I'm at (BTW, sorry the pics aren't that great, I snapped them off pretty quick and didn't realize until I got them on the computer...). I've painted the olive drab and couldn't wait to try out Domi's weathering technique. So, I waited about an hour for the paint to dry and then mixed up some water colors and gave it a whirl (ignoring all of my own previous advice about thoroughly letting paint dry, etc, etc, etc...) If you look close, you should be able to see some 'streaking' I did on the side of the hull. I'm actually pretty happy with this and likely wouldn't ever be able to duplicate it again. It was more of a mistake than anything because I forgot to add the 'vinegar' to the wash and ended up getting some 'harder' edges to the wash than I really wanted. Knowing it was water color, I just took a damp brush, and feathered any of the edges I didn't like. The result ended up looking good to my eye. Let me know what you think??
Another shot of the other side of the hull that you may be able to see the streaking a little better.
An overall view to show you what's under the hull (not as much detail as frosty's kit, but I'm OK with that....) Probably a little excess weathering, but it was kinda fun!!
A closer look at the engine.
Thanks for letting me share!! For a guy who hasn't really built any armor before (I built a 1/72 Crusader once and it didn't turn out very good), I'm having lots of fun with this.
