Mikeew Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 Fiished this up this evening. Here are some snaps taken under workbench lighting, I'll get better shots in daylight when I can. Spada decals, Eduard seatstraps and napalm tanks from spares box. Xtracrylix and Tamiya paints with Alclad for chipped effect. Any questions?, feel free to ask/comment! Battered Bearcat(with chips!) I'm pleased with it, hope you all like it too! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mkimages Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 That looks great; very realistic, especially the patterning in the exhaust staining. Are they airbrushed on as well? Looks like it could be pastels. :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Looks like it could be pastels. Thanks! The exhaust staining is indeed airbrushed on, using Tamiya acrylics. Colours used were Sky Grey, German Grey, Buff and Smoke.
