Hi there...it has been such a long long time since my last visit here...
and Happy New Year to all big A brothers..
here is my curent build since my AWOL...
Happy New Year guys!
manage to do a few update and take photos this time..
i lighten the grey shade and then add decals and then time to do the chipping...
i did it with vallejo black grey and done with my 000 brush and a small wire..this is first time doing paint chipping...i hope it turn out to be ok..
here are some photos...
the chipping on the trailer was not completed yet....
next ..oil wash
i used raw umber oil color thinned with spirits...
i never like using washes..but i cant help it now..
its a disaster ..
here are some photos just after the oil wash...
maybe i have to see when it's dried...ahh..i hate oil wash
comments are welcome...
thanks for viewing

Wow, thats a great Flak gun. Dont worry about the wash, it looks fine to me!
You may have plans for a base but take a look at http://www.justplanestuff.net
They produce a fantastic base for the Flak 36/37 -

thanks guys for the kind words...
i plan to make a small dio that consist of the supplied crews and a sdkfz 7 parking next to the gun..
thanks for showing the nice dio base but i would prefer to build a simple base...
i will update the gun in the meantime...
cheers,

Very Nice 88. I like your chipping and I think the wash is not bad either.
