Hi all.

Just thought I'd post this here to see what everyone thinks. This isn't my best work, but at least I finally finished an armor project. And I think it came out ok.

Delbert,
Looks great to me, the Dunklegelb that you mixed up turned out looking a lot better once you added the other camo colors on. Good job.
Cheers to you

I'm looking forward to seeing your best because this is pretty darn good. The overall tone is nice, the camo is good.
The camo on the recoil rails might be more worn down than what you have. Other than that... keep it up.

Looks like it's ready to sit in the wood line and dish up a world of hurt on some poor unsuspecting Sherman coming down the road. Good camo and nice and grimy.

Very well done, Delbert. I'm assuming this is straight from the box? One criticism--- you could brighten up the wheel rims and the sprocket teeth with bright steel where the contact the tracks

Hey Delbert. Looks good! You blended the tri color camo very nicely. If you try the suggestion about the drive sproket, and also the treads, i think you'll be really pleased with how it looks. I used a prismacolor color metallic silver pencil, and it looks way cool. I think the bottom line here is that you feel it came out well. That's ALL that matters. ALSO please forgive my spelling, punctuation, and rambling sentence structure, i drink WAY more than is good for me. RONNY.

thanks again all.. the comets here are always most helpful.

I did you a grafite silver pencil on the tracks but I think my final dull coat blended it in to much and its hard to see.... use some thing a bit brighter next time I work on tracks..

thanks again for the input..

Great job over all. You may want to add some rust to the tracks and try going back over the sprocket teeth with silver. I agree, if this isn't your best, I can't wait to see one better.

Looks good. Ditto on the bit of silver on the drive sprocket teeth. Also, a bit on the outer edge of the wheel rim. It sits just below the top of the guide teeth.
