I still have to weather and such but here it is so far.
[:D] looking real good so far, nice work.[:D]
Looks like you’re almost done, so, I hate to burst your bubble at this point, but your roadwheels starting at Number two on Number one bogie are backwards. The “spokes” should be to the outside like the first wheel in #1 bogie.
Steve
wait… just wondering, is that painted at all? Or just bare plastic?
Thet tracks look pretty well done, and as corckett said the wheels are on backwards.
The road wheel isn’t back wards. I used it because I wanted to be a little different. Good eyes though! The hull, turret and the majority is going to get a winter camo. Probably some dirt and wash also. Perfection is way beyond me so I fiddle more than try. Thanks for the comments!
This is the later released M4A3 kit with the later dished wheels. They are correct as applied. A basecoat of OD will get rid of the waxy, plastic look you know. If an airbrush isn’t in your budget, get a can of Tamiya spray. It’ll do wonders for you.
Thanks for the correction guys, I didn’t realize the Shermie came with “baby moons”…[oops]
Steve
so the one odd looking wheel would not be that odd it could have been replaced when original was damaged in combat
look at pic of real t34’s many had mixed wheels
“baby moons”! Gotta love it![:D]
the road wheels were also changed over time in producton so you could have either style on different models depending who built it. baby moons is awsome[;)] by the way if your having fun building and you are not at work its all good brother
Looks like it’s coming right along! I like your choice of wheels.
Comments:
You should definitely paint it OD before you whitewash it.
It may just be the picture, but the end of the barrel seems to be drooping a bit. You might want to check that out.
It also may be just the picture, but it appears that you’ve painted the return rollers black. They are metal, not rubber, and should be OD like the rest of the vehicle.
Please keep us updated with your progress!
