M-47 Patton before it gets a hard target at "Große Höhe"

Hanno Kleinecke
Cool ! Nice weathering and chipping, looks really " metally " ! 🙂

Holger Kranich Forfatter
Heavy Metal or no Metal at all...😢

This is just a testbed for anything but i like the "Shades of Green". And this build is oob straight outta the box, not Even scratching!
Thanks Hanno!🙂

Holger Kranich Forfatter
Please do not wonder, i stole the decals from a Leopard 2...😢 Those from the box where only brittle dust...

Holger Kranich Forfatter
Oh the Pictures unveiled it, the turret need some tough ups on the left side of it... 😠 😭

Holger Kranich Forfatter
Its by far not finished but the fit was really cool, especially the running gear and this kit is well engineered. Only the kit tracks are horrible stiff... Thank you Hunter!

Kerry COX
Holger, am I imagining things, or did you base coat this beast with 'steel' before the green. ?

Holger Kranich Forfatter
Hi Kerry! No, i post-shaded the green and gave it a (too heavy) washing. I like the result, single colored vehicles are not easy to paint...😉

Choppa Nutta
really nice natural feel to this one 🙂

Kerry COX
Yes Choppa, and all armoured vehicles have that 'metallic' look from their first day in the units, and this is one that looks like it's been around a while, like she has had a few hands and boots on her. :-/

Holger Kranich Forfatter
Oilpaint or a good Airbrush, Hunter!😢

Well, i take your comments as a compliment.😉 i'm proud of the result of my paintjob and im curious for the next steps in weathering!🙂

Clifford Keesler
How do you weather a tank that is finished in Armour sand? What do you use?

Holger Kranich Forfatter
Hunter, if you can answer, please do because i dont know what "Armour sand" is...

Does it mean, painted in a desert camo, Cliffy?

Glenn Hancock
Great looking tank - thanks for sharing all the pics!

Clifford Keesler
Yes Hunter you can answer my question.

Choppa Nutta
