Nice weathering. Looks like it has been in the desert for a while already. |

Thanks chaps!
For weathering I use a washing sponge dipped in metal paint, best to take some of it off before applying like with drybrushing. |

Well I was confident that the Valentine just missed out on Second Alamein, but thought I had better check in the appropriate Osprey book. Loads of photos…..OK. I'll drop that conviction. So instead I will be contrary and argue that I would favour the M4A1 Sherman II against a Panzer Mk IV eg crew of five instead of 3, maybe a bit taller I guess. Great paintwork and a very convincing result. |
