the doog What kind of primer are you using, Johan? It looks very dark. Those colors look good. As long as they're close, who's really an "expert"? Your model will look fine with those. :)

JOHAN. looking good.i use ACE HARDWARE NOW gray for all my armor priming. inexpensive, big can. as for the colors you can walk sown a russian tank park row and have half a dozen different shades of green. try different colors for washes too. i did a camo ww1 tank and washed it with yellow then green, then gray, than burnt umber and a black pine wash on details.. easier to darken a light base coat than the other way around.

Hi Wayne,thanks for the tip on the washes!I will give it a go in that sequence.
I so much wanted to complete this in 2014, but at 1800 yesterday I had to give up,the New Years party was calling for attention ;)
The tracks are painted X-10 Gun Metal, will tone the shine down with a Valejo Wash.Covers better then Oil washes. I used XF-85 Rubber black for the road wheels, hand paints very well.Green is XF-5, Dark Yellow XF-60 and Nato Black XF-69.Hoping to give the road wheels and tracks a go tomorrow.
Happy New Year everyone and best wishes for 2015 :)
Very Best Regards

Hi again,
The link and length tracks where a pain to get in place.Since the height of the suspension is lowered I had to take out 2 links on each side and bend them in place. I hope it is not noticeable. There is some adjustment possible in both the idler wheel and the drive wheel and that helped.
Next up is finishing of the clear parts and periscopes, the AA and some other detail before the clear cote goes on followed by stencils, chipping and washes.
Thank you for stopping by, all comments are welcome.
Best Regards
Your T-90 looks like it's getting close to the finish line Johan! Looking good.

JohanT The friends over at Armorama.com are debating the accuracy in extence but more detailed and more worrying are the findings that the friends over at panzer35.ru are posting.

Sorry I missed this thread when it started, but it looks awesome with what you've got there. I think it's going to turn out great, and it will lok every bit the awesome MBT it is. Rivet counters be darned...
Wow that's looking great! I can imagine the pain involved in those tracks... They look great though, well done getting them on and looking so good!

Hi Bill,Thank you for stopping by, Yes I am finally approaching the finnishing line
Hi Karl,I have made myself that promise Honestly I dont worry to much about the RC's. If it looks OK it is OK.Then again I do think it was wort cutting down the side skirts and lowering the ride.I never worried about the rest of the list though
Hi CodyJ,Yes, it was a PIA but most of the trouble I think I caused myself when I got the skirts on before the tracks.Big misstake, should have followed the instructions there. Glad you think they look OK
Thank you all for taking your time and for your kind comments and support, much appreciated!
Very Best RegardsJohan
