I've been slowly working on my Dragon Panther G - at present the top hull is still separate from the bottom and I am working on the tracks; the top run is sitting loose, ready for more fettling.

Paints are Testors Model Master Panzer Yellow and an Aeromaster RLM 80 Olivegrun. Having seen some comments about the possible colour scheme being Panzerbraun and Olivgrun it might be a bit late to change...





Thoughts? Comments would be appreciated...

apart from the fact that you have defenately done some good weathering, it does look a bit unfinished. the idea i get is that you only used light colors to weather it, and it's missing dark dirt colors. your tank still looks too new compared to the rusting you applied (which is very nicely done btw).
i am thinking it might be solved with a filter (or 2) and then a bit dark pigments around the edges?

just my thoughts. overall the project looks good. you are defenately on the way to get a good result.

Hi Steven,
Yup, the weathering is on its way! Unfortunately the flash has washed out the colours a little. I've found a really good rust effect can be acheived by using a combination of real, genuine rust (ground into powder), from a steel plate I leave outside to rust, and a heavily diluted mix of Citadel Terracota and Model Master Earth Red.

Just a suggestion,try your pictures outside in natural light,you will see a big diffrence.As far as the model,it looks good,i like the tracks.
