    Sure! First I did paint whole tank in 3 color late war "Ambush" scheme with Tamiya acrylics, then I covered it with hairspray. After hairspray dried a bit I covered the tank with Tamiya flat white/buff mix with random pattern, letting original colors show throught this layer. Once this was dried I soaked an old brush with water and started "rubbing" white layer off. Hairspray protected the base and allowed white not to stick too hard onto the model so it could be removed with wet brush. I repeated this painting step twice to get the effect I wanted.

    Time for some more v.i.p pictures! After seeing Kunjuros nice looking Tiger I in winter camo I wanted to try that technique myself. So, here's what I have now, a mighty Panther G! Next step will be re-gluing all those tiny photoetch that I rubbed off and then start some detailpainting, inside of hatches and exhaustsystem. In the end this model will be in diorama so suspension and tracks are done after the model sits in a base. Any comments, advices and critisims is welcomed.
  14. Ruuhkis
    What do you use when adding dust? Pigments, washes or something else? Tracks are looking really good, I like how you've got them dusty but still kept all the details visible. Did you do pinwashes to the hull?

    Here it is, I'm calling this project done. I should re-do some painting to roadwheels to make them cleaner but since this was practice project for painting panzergrey tanks I'm sparing myself from that pain.

    There has been some activity in my modelling desk too lately, here are some work-in-progress photos of my current project. It's an old Tamiya kit from late 70's that I've been using as a practice model for color modulation. At this point pretty much all basic painting is done and in next stage there will be some detail painting and then the weathering starts. Comments? Yeah, double post... Sorry. Edit. No2, is it showing now? Photobucket is ****...

    Hard to explain since I'm not native English speaker but what I meant with that grey primer is this. Your winter white wash is so neatly applied that it looks, in few photos, that camo pattern is applied over the whitewash and then worn off making your whitewash look as basecoat and not the other way round. 3rd picture in particular looks to me like camo has worn off revealing grey layer underneath it. There is no actual primer shoving through, just the way my eye "judges" your paintjob. But like said, still liking the overall look of the model.
  23. Ruuhkis
    Nice work, looks good for my taste but since you asked criticism few points that caught my eye. That whitewash is way too perfect and well applied imo, looks almost like the camo has worn of showing grey primer underneath, specially on that low quarter front pic. This could be a photo issue too, photographing model is a pain in the ass... Technically it looks like job well done tho, I like it. Second point is tracks, more presice the snow on tracks. It looks odd to have just patches of snow inside the tracks, it's either covered with snow or polished shiny by track movement against roadwheels.

    What's wrong with RNG? In several cases lately "Killshots" have done only 90% from average dmg leaving opponent to 2-4% health... So many DMG lowrolls.

      I did a quick check. In last 2 games with Mauschen 490 alpha gun I rolled once over 500 out of 16 shots. Average DMG was 435.71. Not bad for such a gun... Almost 90% of it's promised alpha. Am I missing something here?

      Thats a feature (1% tanks) WG introduced 2011 with the game release after open beta. Caused a massive outcry among veterans on the forums (those threads are long gone in best WG tradition), which ofc was ignored but at least acknowledged. They might have toned it down a little bit.

       

      Just an other form of noob protection.

      I left a tank on 1 HP yesterday, but I forgot to put on my tinfoil had. So, I just assumed it was RNG.

    So, after some idling I'm making a comeback to the game. Had a nice game with Leo but in the end I died... Was I too greedy when going into the "pit" or should I have stayed there instead of trying to retreat? http://wotreplays.eu/site/4018152#fiery_salient-ruuhkis-leopard_1

    What crewskills do you recommend to this thing? Just started grinding towards E3 and put fresh crew with 6th/camo in it, what for 2nd skills? Was planning to go for repairs but would gunhandling be better? Also what equipment should I run? Currently Rammer/vents but still wondering between optics, spall liner and GLD as a 3rd choice. Or even a toolbox? Few games I've had with this I've found myself spearheading assault up close and personal so not really gaining anything from Binos/Net. Oh, and it's already fully upgraded so weight isn't a problem.

      And now we know, it prevents me from getting answers either on forums or via PM. You won, I won't be posting onto these forums anymore.
