Hi,
It's been ages since I actually finished a model, so here's my SU-100 finished in Egyptian markings for the Nov AMoM. The kit is 1/35 from Zvezda, quite a nice kit that goes together well apart from the tracks. It's painted in Humbrol enamels and I used Maskol for the paint chipping. The weathering is by various oil washes, graphite and pastel chalk.





Regards,
Rich

Very nice, Rich. You left out a shot.



Gary, I know one of these is among your many in-progress builds. Don't the "Czech mods" include scalloped exhaust covers? Excuse my ignorance.

Finally something alternative!
I do like the weathering, looks pretty desertic!
(Nevermind the tracks)

Thanks guys. I wanted to build this after visiting Bovington earlier this year and seeing the real thing there. I just liked the look of it. Would you believe I was in the middle of painting it before I noticed the exhaust covers were different? Even though I had a good clear pic of them all along?!? DOH!!!!
