Panzer Kampfwagen II Ausf. F/G

Lookin good Al!

Thanks both.

The service crew arrived today and set about work.

They look so ashen. I think they need more sunshine.

More super work Al, looking forward to seeing what ya do next.

Thanks guys.


LOL..... what can you expect?.... they've been stuck in a box for a long time!!

 

The equipment arrived yesterday and the crew have been complaining as they had to assemble everything themselves. Now they are moaning because they're going to have to paint it too.

You just couldn't get the staff in WWII!!!

Rusting looking great.
I know yer not done, so I suppose more is coming on the under carriage.

Sorry ! I posted this forgetting that there were more pages !

That's looking great, Skid !

That set of men and tools is like a kit on it's own. Lot's of detail stuff to do there. Looks good Al.

Thanks guys.

Buck, the whole dio when finished will comprise of thes five elements:

WOW!!!!!! That's alot Al. I didn't realize it was that involved. Not being familiar with the genre of modeling doesn't help. LOL

Hi Mr Skid Sir,

This is looking great so far, I can't get over just how much extra kit there is in the field tool kit, no wonder those poor chaps aren't happy, maybe let them know there will be a beer call when they finish...

Andy...

Bier? Bier? Mein gott, bist du verrückt geworden?

Since the tank is so beaten up, I figured that the field workshop should a least get SOME weathering.......

....... SO..... primer sprayed, baking soda applied and now waiting to dry before paint applied.

Cool.

Hi Mr Skid Sir,

This looks great so far, have you used this colour primer to act as a rust coat...

I guess it's way too small to use with a 1/24 - 1/25 kit...

Andy...

Looking good Al. Anxious to see how it turns out.

Yes and no Andy. It was all I had to hand at the time but it will help when I add some light AK rust pigments.

And yes, way to small to use with 1/25 scale.

Not much of an update but I got the bench in base colour then did some dry brushing woodgrain effect. Next it will get a couple of coats of Testors Dullcote and then some oils stains methinks.

The crew received their uniforms to-day.!!

Painting figures is an art form in itself, which I haven't got. Just look at the wild eyed stare of the guy at the rear!! LOL

You've done a damn good job Al on your first try. The shirt weathering looks pretty good. On a friendly ribbing note  it kinda looks like they've all got rubber gloves on. 
I have faith in ya Al that they'll all look the part when your done with them. 

I think they look pretty good. Far better job than I could do for sure.
