Double Trouble

models

I primed Famo in gray primer and painted in Tamiya acrylics. First I sprayed it in XF60 Dark Yellow and let it dry for one day. Then I made hard paper masks using old newspapers to paint the camouflage scheme.(can be seen as a photo) . I used XF64 Red Brown and XF61 Dark Green as camouflage colors. After the wash and drybrush steps,I sprayed it in Humbrol 29 Matt Dark Earth covering the windshield. The covers are made of tissue paper soaked in diluted PVA glue. I replaced them in suitable positions and tied with threads to the different parts of vehicles. I will not mention about the Panzer IV because it was an old painted kit on my shelf and I just weathered it before adding it on the transporter.

All figures are painted in enamels and weathered in oils. I painted some of the Famo figures in black uniforms as the tank crew. I painted the flesh tones darker to show the sunburnt effect.
