Welcome ChenJin, to Armorama.
Cannot see your KV1. No images in your gallery and you havent offered any links.

Your KV-1 looks good. I like the wear and tear on it with the beaten up fenders. Excellent job.

ChenJin,

very nice KV-1, good weathering and a clean build, congrats!

One thing you may want to consider is the tracks. The colour of them looks to uniform, possible some washes and pigments would be a good idea......otherwise you have produced a very good KV-1

ChenJin,

A very nice rendition of the KV-1. The color is excellent and the weathering is done very nicely. All it needs now is a diorama to showcase it!
Hope to see more of your work in the future.


Cheers,
Charles

Did you replace the fenders with metal or did you thin the plastic? I like the fender damage

I thin the plastic.

Hey again ChenJin. Excellent KV1. Love the weathering and the damaged fenders. The decaling on the turret and the shade of green used, are all great work.
I agree with what Hawkeye wrote, and would also add that the running wheels are metal and running on metal, so the green paint would be long gone in this area. They need a metal finish where the metal meets.
Small critic, but it doesn´t take away from an otherwise nice model.

Hi ChenJin,

First, Welcome to Armorama!

I really like your KV. What green colour did you use?
