1/35 Stuart Progress (updated)

Well I’m getting there. I finally did a wash and drybrushing. I put the decals on today. Only thing left to do is add some dirt to blend the tracks in.

I did paint the hatchs OD as suggested in my previous post. The decals are a little thick so if you have curves that they need to conform to it is a little difficult. Alot of Micro Sol is needed to keep em from silvering and making sure they lay down good.

All comments are welcome.

looks great Joe. I just finished the same kit in the same scheme. Those decals weren’t easy, especially the stripe. One quick question, was the 34 part of the kit decals? I didn’t add that…I think I missed it. Oops

That’s a beauty - Great Job[tup]

Nice, colorful little Stuart!
Was the yellow stripe that goes over the cast mantlet a decal? That one must’ve been tough!

Jason,Ken and Brian, Thanks!
Jason, that was a nice build, yeah the 34 is a kit decal. I noticed I forgot the lights.[:I]

Brian, I had to hand paint that one and yes it was a pain. I was surprised I could match the yellow. I almost hand painted the rest of the yellow but I wasn’t that ambitious.

Joe

looks like I need to go back and add it. I forgot my light too and had to go back. It is the kit that won’t end

Very cool job on the Honey!

nice job! looks great! really like the work you did on that

Excellent. I really like the looks of that build.

Very nice job on the Stuart. I’m currently working on the same kit & plan to do it in the same scheme. Past experience with Academy decals leads me to think I will mask & spray the Yellow stripes as well as the mantle.

Regards, Rick

Hey! That looks great! I’m going to have to add that to my “wish list”. Great job on the wash and decals! Very nice!

Thanks for the comments!

Rick, I think if I were to do it again I’d paint the yellow stripe too.
