fantastic finish Marc
Finally got to get to the bench again to add some last little parts... tools, straps, gussets for the "rail" behind the turret. What is that for anyway? And finished the weathering. Grease stains from the constant lubing the tracks needed and of course... Mud!
Marc
redleg12 what you did with the light weathering is not only well done but allows the viewer to truly appreciate the wonderful paint and finish work you did.

Thanks so much for stopping in and saying the nice things you did. Since positing these I have finished a few final details. I also finished the weathering. At the point these pics were taken I was considering going a bit further with some mud and also some oil streaks from the constant lubing of the track. I will get some new pics up later.
Marc, I almost missed this one and what a shame that would have been. What a treasure you created. The camo work is Outstanding I see so many of these with all kinds of heavy weathering, what you did with the light weathering is not only well done but allows the viewer to truly appreciate the wonderful paint and finish work you did. Nice

Shame on me for not paying attention.
Terry, Mark, Jeff... thanks for looking in and thanks for the comments.
Terry, using my stuff as a reference? Kinda of a scary thought. LOL But yes, a compliment for sure.
Great work Marc. I've got one of these that I started a couple of years ago and got to the point of painting, but couldn't figure out how I was going to do the camo, so I stashed it. Now I think I've got the answer! Thanks for sharing.
Jeff
Excellent work Marc.The camo is outstanding and the weathering is great. Subtle and not over done obscuring detail. High marks on all aspects! Thanks for posting

Hi, Marc as I said over in the GB, excellent, the best compliment I can probably give is "I'm saving your pics as reference when I get to paint" .
Terry.
Thanks bish, appreciate the comment.
Lovely build Marc. That paint scheme is amazing

Manny, yup sure have. Even as I was putting this on of you caught the light and got just the right reflection it looked a bit purpleish. But inthe end it looked black and it is well sealed under several sealer and weathering coats. Looking at threads in other forums, quite a few guys used this and all seemd to be pleased.
Thanks Kenny

really great work,the camo stands out,the weathering and the tracks are great also,Marc
Up to your usual standards Marc, very nice work on the Char. The puzzle-piece camo has always been a favorite of mine and you nailed it perfectly.

Marc , Great looking camo , weathering , details
Marc, this turned out really great and your landscaping is a nice touch.

Another stunning build Marc. I really love that camo job. I concur about this GB, it's been a treasure trove of information on armor that I knew next to nothing on. And, we have a real Frenchman with all his knowledge in the GB as well. That makes it kind of official.
Eric
Your CHAR is WELL-DONE!!! One of the nicest French tank builds I've seen...exceptional camo and restrained weathering...bravo...
Marc,,, I will echo my post in the GB SUPERB!
Enjoy the ride!
I have to ask...how did you do the black lines???

Thanks hercmech.
Marc,
Nice job on the BiS
Bon jour & Guten tag
This is my entry for Eric's (aka Tigerman) "Blitzkrieg in the West (France 1940)" GB. he has done a great job getting that build going and it is moving allong quite well. Lots of build and info. Who could ask for more?
The Tamiya B1 bis came out in '06 and there was quite and there was some excitement about it at the time. Lots of builds straight away with lots of info availabe as to what needed to be corrected in the kit. A few things needed to be removed and a few things needed to be added. There is even a web site devoted to the B1 with tons of photos and a section about this kit and the list of corrections. That was a big help.
It represents #338, Charente, of 41st BCC, 3rd compagnie, 3rd section. It is prior to being taken intact by the Germans at which time the commander and driver where killed as they exited the vehicle and the 3 other crewmen were taken prisoner. Unit marking are masked and painted with the name/numbers being dry transfers.
Thanks for looking.
