Just off the assembly line and fresh from the paint shop. Here are links to a few pictures of a 1/72 scale Reviresco St. Chamond tank. It hasn't been off the test track yet so there's no mud or dust. Kevin

You did a better job than I did with that kit. Well done! Wyatt |

Beautiful. Care to give a quick how-to. I'm learning how to paint vehicles at this scale and I'm finding it challenging. I know the camo is free hand, but do you airbrush your other tanks shown on your site. I need tips! Joey |

Thanks. Deathwing, I used an airbrush on the Forge World Fighter Bomber and Maurader bomber, one set of Armaments in Miniature Horsa gliders, and parts of the Armaments in Minature 1/100 scale Pegasus bridge. Everything else was painted with a brush. My basic how-to:
Clean and assemble the mini.
Apply primer (Rust Oleum automotive primer is what I use 99% of the time).
Start painting – lighter colors first, usually two coats.
Apply a dark wash
Apply gloss finish (I use Future floor polish)
Apply decals.
Apply matte finish (I use Krylon clear flat) Kevin |
