Tank

Hi guys!

I want to show you a tank that I'm building.

The Tank it self is a Sherman Firefly. This: "http://www.mainlyplanesntrains.com/images/Kits%20-%20Revell/03211.jpg" to be specific.

This is it's 'pedestal' so to speak. It is a small bridge with stone and the part of a bridge.

This is a first stage of painting it.



Here is the tank in itself before any painting:



After that I did some painting on the bridge.

The tank is still bare.

I'm using a small air gun for Base painting. After that I'm using a small brush for detail and a large one for dry washing.

I mixed the colors myself that's why they don't look professional. :)

After that I glued some sand and some flora onto the bridge to try and make it more life like.

And here is the bridge and the tank together.



I tried to look at real bridged to catch a color. The dirt looks pink because I messed up the Mix. :)

First I based it with the AirBrush black. After that I went over it with a dark color dark gray. Then again with a not so dark gray color. And then Drywashed it with a whitened gray color. This way the shadows are visible a bit. Also I did a white wash on the bricks and a Gray DryWash...

My technique is ofc that of a noobs.... But I enjoyed it and I'm learning a lot in the way.

Cheers!
