Hi folks, just wanna share a bit of what i have been up to lately. Behold my KV lightcast Turret . It still in WIP. Hopefully to get the rest done by this weekend.





Sorry if the picture quality is bad. Just another lousy camera. :-)

I'm currently in the process of building the 'Heavy Cast Turret' version of the KV1 - yours is looking good. What paints are you using?

I almost built both but decide then to built the lightcast.
I gave a preshade of black, then a base coat of russian green then i did a highlighting of a mixture of russian green and buff to get the faded green. All from Vallejo paints.
