Yet another story of "I got it CHEAP!" At some point, I picked up the
KV-1s Heavy Tank Company (SBX04) in the flea market - I think at
Historicon 2012 - for $25. The plan was to paint these and sell them at the next
HMGS convention, but Steven snagged them first. I did manage a few pictures before he took them home.
 |
| I primed these with hardware store camouflage paint, since I was out of Soviet armor. |
 |
| I went back and painted the base coat on these with Russian Green (894) |
 |
| I dry-brushed these with Russian Uniform (924) |
 |
| I had no issues with casting on these guys at all - everything cleaned up nice and quick. |
 |
| I used the included decals and added all the bells and whistles -- I think it looks cool. I sprayed these with Gloss Varnish and put on some black wash to shade these up. As always, finished off with Testors Dull Cote. |
 |
| I tried to make the fuel tanks look a little rusty and put some fuel spillage on with black wash. I use a combo of Dark Rust (302) and Yellowish Rust (303) dry-brushed on. |
Thanks for looking at these guys! You might see them in a battle report soon!
