madmike Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 Finally got around to taking some images of this build, built late last year. There is great scope for super detailing this kit or simply fixing some of the shortcomings. I decided to not to rectify these preferring to practice a few new weathering techniques. Kit goes together well but does need some filler around the front upper and lower chassis halves. So here are the pics. Kit was painted with Vallejo paints followed by fading and washes using oils. Pastels completed the weathering. Cheers Mike Quote Link to post Share on other sites

NICE !! :unsure: Hi Holmes and thanks for the kind words :) I use Silfor Karst tufts, blended into the groundwork with flock mixes. They are great for this purpose.

HWR MKII Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 I have built this kit as well. Simply slicing the hatches open and replacing the molded on grab handles with wire makes it really pop. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
