Hey Danny,

Not bad at all!! Looking good, Specially the hard-edge camo.
I have two little points:
1. Did you use a filter to blend the camo colours a bit? Because the difference between the colours seems to be a tad bit out of scale...
2. I think you have to tone-down the turret decals a bit, because on the picture they are very bright..

Hope this helped, John.

Hi john

thanks for the comments

but what do you mean by using a filter to blend the camo colours? i added a bit of Tamiya 'buff' to the 2 camo colours, if that's what you meant?

i do not see myself owning an airbrush any time soon, so all my camo right now will be hard edged

You might want to try a little pastel dust to soften the edges a ittle, give her a light dusting, that should blend the lines a little, But other than that good build my friend. One other small thing I noticed is that all the tools look new, might want to weather them up a bit, Camo looks very, very good coming from a rattle can though.

Looks very nice. I too would suggest some pastel work. Also a little more drybrushing to bring out some detail and scuff the paint.
