Hobby Boss 1/48 KV-1 WIP

I think I'm finished with the dust. Probably should have more but I'm not that brave. Some textured paint made from PVA and pigments have been applied to the lower hull.

Hobby boss 1/48 KV - 1 update




After some time away I started the weathering process. I saw a model at a show which was weathered with dust and looked fantastic. Fortunately for me the owner was only to happy to pass on the techniques used, which are very simple and are just layers of Humbrol 94 and 29 or any other dust type colour. The paint is applied quite thick in the panel you are working on then hit it with the white spirit and watch go. Once dried you can remove any paint you do not like with more white spirit and push the paint around until you are happy. I need lots more practice but it's good to try something new. Will be starting on the turret next.
