Dimitris,

Nice work! I'm currently working on the old DML JS-2 kit from 1994. I hope it turns out as good as your kit has. I'll post it when I'm done.

Best,

Bill

The colors & weathering look really good! But isn't that a 152, instead of a 122??

A little English help: it's your "latest" work. "last" means that you won't be making any more

No, it's a ISU-122. The muzzle break n the ISU-152 is completely different.

Very impressive work! I was actually startled to realize it was a 1/72nd scale kit.

Hi Dimitris,

Great job with the model.
I only suggest to add some metalizer on the edge of the tracks.

I love to see more of your work situated historicaly in my country - Poland.

Thanks all for your kind words

@ Łukasz Bąk
I'll add some (more) mettalic texture, just arrived Mig's 'Gun Metal pigment'

@ richard que
Yes, in this case I have used the Vallejo 'Chipping Medium' for the white wash. Also some pigments and 'Sand & Gravel Glue', diluted with white spirit. Lately I prefer this instead of any 'Pigment Fixer'.
Same dilution (white spirit) with the 'Fresh Engine Oil'.
Everywhere it is overdoned, I clear some of the texture, with the same thinner. My small secret is to not do all together these processes to all over the model, sides/parts. I.e. you can leave more 'white' a fuel drum, you may add some oil to an other etc.

@ Joe
You are right, no I do not want this to be my last one!
Thanks a lot, my English are not so good indeed

@ Bill Florig
Waiting your news

@ Gerald Owens
That's why a coin always helps!
Cheers.
