Just got a digital camera, trying it out...so If the pics are no good...my apologies. This is Tamiya Sherman 105mm, inp....OOB, with scratch built hatch/grab handles. One coat of MM Acryl Olive drab, think its too light (my desk light makes it look khaki)....Comments, questions...(if the pics didn't work, let me know...i'll figure it out, nm they worked)




fixed em a little (closer to true color, need to learn how to use Adobe PS now)

Looks good Jejack2! Keep us updated s you progress.

Here's what a little photo editing can do:

Thanks Kencelot...didn't mess with Adobe Photoshop too much...just enuff to size the pic and post it...was more interested in seeing if I could post em without a hitch. (btw...what did you do to fix the color??)

looks good I built the same kit.........https://armorama.kitmaker.net/forums/11026&page=1.........I liked it......what you gonna dress it up as?

Looks good

Thinking about winter camo....if not at least a small winter Dio...with some Figs, and a abandoned German foxhole...(will be my first attempt at a dio tho....so we'll see)

Jejack2, I used Jasc's Paintshop Pro 7. Within I used the Colors - Adjust - Hue/Saturation/Lightness control.
The color you achieved in you photo is most likely caused by an incandescent bulb. Was that the case? Do you have an incand. bulb near the photo?

Yup, hit the nail on the head with that one. Need to get a "natural light" just havent gotten around to it.

(edit) Yeah I took those pics about an hour ago....pretty dark in the house then....(edit)

You save the expense of a natural light and just use the free one that good Lord gave all of us. Sunlight! It works the best.
Be careful though, as sunlight can bring out all those minute imperfections with the kit.
