Zimmermaniac

Markus Kutsch The Plastic Bench
Thanks Zimmi.Its slowly going on.

Markus Kutsch The Plastic Bench
Chipping will be the next i think.Or stowage painting for in between.

Zimmermaniac
I could use some lessons for my sherman 🙂

Markus Kutsch The Plastic Bench
I am shure you will handle this,Zimmi.And if dont,you have us 🙂
By the way ,wasnt there something with your Bogies?

Holger Kranich
Its looking great, Markus!!!

Markus Kutsch The Plastic Bench
I wanted the stowage boxes on the fenders to have a lighter color as the rest of the tank (pic8).Light on horizontal surfaces.

Markus Kutsch The Plastic Bench
Pic 8 (not sunglasses)

Holger Kranich
Absolute wonderful coloures and fading!

Zimmermaniac
Im waiting for answer from Dragon, hope they will replace it

Markus Kutsch The Plastic Bench
Thanks Mates.

Mike Kryza
Great!!!

Burkhard D
Amazing, doesn't look like plastic anymore - a convincing metallic appearance.

Dirk Heyer
Looks very vivid! For my way, filtering on 35 scale tanks is absolutely important, the result is stunning! Scale 35 Tank models without any colour textures and nuances are boring for me and they are sadly often overseen on model expos!
I like yours the more and all those different colour nuances you`ve done! I`m sure this one will be a eyecatcher!

Kim Branders
Amazing job Markus, Y'are the Master!!!!!!!!!!

Markus Kutsch The Plastic Bench
Thanx Kim,but from a "Master " i am Miles away.🙂
I agree with Dirk.I dont varnish the model after painting.I like those differences between the shiny and dull surfaces after weathering.
Thanx Mates for your comments.

Philip De Keyser
It looks great Markus, you've a great result with the colors nuances, I love it, it's like Dirk say it, this is a eyecatcher, well done mate, greetz Phil

This model almost went into the Carbage can.The Tamiya surfacer must be to old or so (maybe not enough aerosol (gas)in the can.It cloged all details .I washed the turret with laquer remover.The hull was not so bad and it added some texture to the fenders.I was lucky i saved this Kit so.It would be a shame after all the photo etch if it had landed in the bin.

Markus Kutsch The Plastic Bench
Only had to redo some Bolts on the turret after the lacquer bath.

Zimmermaniac
I always use the vallejo grey primer ( the small bottles ), tthat and the matt varnish are the only vallejo products I really like

Markus Kutsch The Plastic Bench
Next time i use my airbrush to spray a primer .Perhaps i try the Vallejo primer too,Zimmi !

Acki
Hi Markus, great job!! Thanks for showing.

Aghis Barberopoulos
Looks superb! Great paint effects on the armor, very realistic.

stefan natus
Indeed great effects and shades.

Markus Kutsch The Plastic Bench
From the rear deck will not be seen much.I plan to bring stowage on it.On an allied tank need to be stowage!

Holger Kranich
Looks as if a small artist is growing here...😉

Markus Kutsch The Plastic Bench
I am not small (1.82 meter). 🙂
Isnt Modeling a sort of Art?Oil paint does not only belong on canvas!
Thanx for all your comments!

Markus Kutsch The Plastic Bench
I will push the chipping a little in front of me.I find its a horrible job!I first paint the stowage .
