Hi all,

Well disaster at the last moment: my attempt to add a little bit of snow to my model failed, but also left nasty traces. I've reworked the model and it's looking ok now again (thank god), and the only thing left to do is a varnish coat.

I hope to be able to make pics tomorrow but I can only do so at daylight!

Andrzej -
Not to worry about the figures. If they're anywhere close to the quality of your Marder, then they'll look great in any diorama you put them in. Many of the Marder or SP crew sets I've seen probably wouldn't have worked well in your diorama, been hard for them to stand up much less load at the angle it's moving...lol. That's more of a button up and go scene. Love the terrain. Thanks for the feedback. I really enjoyed this Campaign. Now on to 'Borders of the Fatherland' and 'Blitzkrieg'.

That's a terrific subject and executed in outstanding manner. An 'unique' looking white wash that gives it character. Really nice job

Martin - Hang in there. You've done an masterful job on the PzKpfw IV. It will look terrific even without the snow. Mine is 'apres' snow fall and melt off...lol.

So this is the end...

I had a great time applying my first winter camo ever. I'm glad you enjoyed the campaing as there is a chance to run White-Washed 2 in near future.

Thank you all for participating, support and great time we shared during this group build.
You all did a great job. Every model shows a little bit different approach to white-wash matter and you won't find two similar models in campaign's gallery.

You'll get your ribbon on April 7th because some of you asked me for short extention. The final term of uploading your pics to gallery is April 6th.

By that time I'll prepare the list of those who earned the ribbon.

Btw, you can join Shermans campaign that starts on April 4th:

Sweet, then I can take some decent pics during the weekend

Thanks Andrzej and Mike! I really do like the multi-turret tanks too! It's funny how small this T-28 looks next to the T-35. the white-wash gives it a nice contrast too.

Anyways, the T-28 is an ICM kit. I think I might have seen it packaged as an 'eastern express' kit someplace as well.

Thanks Andrzej




Thanks Mike.

I appreciate the kind words from both of you. You both have great entries as well.

That was my first time using chalk for white-wash. I would recommend it as it is a lot easier to go back and change something as opposed to if you used paint. I just ground up a piece of white chalk and did sort of a 50/50 mix with water and then applied it with a brush. It dries really quick and you can see the results fast.

I wasn't too sure about whether I liked the way it turned out or not, but your kind words helped me decide that it must be ok.

Thanks again,

HARV

Guys, this was a great campaign. I guess now, it's on to the Sherman Campaign. I was very impressed with all the entries and I learned a few things, too. Best wishes to you all and see you in future campaigns. Dave

Hi Guys,

Bit late with the photo, but it was finished weeks go I have just been a bit slow with the photos.



I promise to get some more / better ones up soon.

Thanks,
Phil.

Nice work, Philip. I think you have archieve a realistic "scruffy" white wash look.

@ Jesper, you're right! Worned White Wash (along with hair spray technique) is a hit of a season .

@ Philip - nice entry! It asks for diorama!

Thanks for the comments guys,

I am very happy with how it came out, although it was a bit worrying doing it!

I have now submitted my photo to the gallery!

Thanks,
Phil.

hey,

my name isn't on your list,finished entry is on page 7,Tamiya's 1/35 Sd.Kfz. 7 w/Quad Flak.

Joe - Flakgunner

This was alot of fun,hope there is a white wash II,got some good ideas,here,using some snowy build up on the white wash ,Thanks for a super Campaign!!

@Koen, I think there would be White Washed 2, but don't know exactly when so pls stay tuned.

@ Philip, thank you for upolading the pic, but there's a problem: you're not enlisted to the campaign. I have to contact MarkM if there is something we can do about that.

The similar situation is with jg26cooper and Rhobby (pics uploaded but user is not enlisted).

Thanks for the ribbon Marcin!

A great campaign, congrats to all who participated, some great models on display, well done!

Also a massive thankyou to the hairspray technique I think a lot of us will agree!

James

Doh!

I am sure I enlisted. Oh well I enjoyed it anyway that the important part!

hanks,
Phil.

Marcin -

Outstanding job and thanks for all your efforts in making this such a highly successful Campaign. Ribbon is great and looking forward to next "White Washed".

Blade48mrd

Thanks, Marcin! I had fun in this campaign. Much more fun than others (Operation Just Cause, Operation Desert Shield/Storm) and less dangerous! I look forward to more campaigns in the future! Best regards, Dave

Thank you for the great ribbon Marcin. This is the second campaign of yours that I have completed. Hopefully there will be a third somewhere down the road.

Great looking entries by all of you.

Thanks again for the cool campaign.

HARV

I opened the campaign back up so that anyone who had completed a build but did not get a ribbon can enlist now.

Thanks Mark,

I'm on the list now!

Thanks,
Phil.

Well here it is More pics will follow, bit short of time now:



Will upload in the gallery as well.

Great campaign!

Maritn,
Great entry! Your panzer looks really good. Weathering is very realistic!
Looking forward to see your entry for Shermans! campaign.

Andrzej
