Hi all
Thanks for your kind words. I'm not used to makeing bases
but I'll take it into consideration.
Olivier: no worries, that kind of nitpicking is interesting.
All tanks have its own history and I hadn't the slightest
idea that Cher was a river. Hope you don't mind if I keep
the title as kind of a word game, as I believe the tanks
crew in the good old days thougt of "Cher" as their "precious".
Oykun: of course, first a black base paint plus a little
light sand on random places. When dry, a thick layer of oil
paint. Before the slow drying paint hardens, scrub away most
of it with white spitit (a mild thinner). If you continue
you'll remove all the paint and can start over if you want.
I used a black/brown oil paint on the chain.
The chain in the kit is polished steel and on some places it
(unintentionally) shines thru where I managed to wear away
the paint.
Hope this helps.
See you later
/Tomas
