I have just finished the Su-100 for the Ostfront GB. It was a fairly straightforward build, using PE in the kit and Fruil tracks. I painted it with a darkended version of MM Russian Armour Green, then lighter shades in the centres of panels. Dry brushed with gray, washed with lamp black and burnt umber oils, used Mig pigments and pastels. Some of the pigments appear really strong on the photos, but look appropriate in real life- like the rusting on the tow cable- barely perceptible when i look at it, but way too strong on the photos.
Always better to err on the “less” side of weathering IMHO…normally when that little voice is saying “just do one more thing”, you’ve probably already gone too far. [:D] Very nice work on the hulking beast, the Russians sure knew how to opt for function over form for sure! [Y]
Great job! Yeah, there’s always the temptation to over-weather stuff, I really like how she turned out. Nice work on capturing the brutish squat look of the tank hunter.
