Bill Watt Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 Hello Matt, got a list of Vallejo colours from this build on YouTube: Not my work, although I would shamelessly claim it if it was. Anyway, the colours are as follows: Base colour 70.821 German Camouflage Beige Highlight 70.847 Dark Sand First green 70.922 Uniform First brown 70.347 Splinter No 2 Second brown 70.825 German Camouflage Pale Brown Second green 70.336 Afrikakorps Tank Crew Light dots/spots 70.342 Highlights Flesh Dark dots/spots 70.822 German Camouflage Black Brown Pete Fleischmann, Buster99, matt_1185 and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Fleischmann Posted September 12, 2021 Author Share Posted September 12, 2021 Got a little paint up on the center IP. I stowed the FLIR screens..added a little hardware, and tossed a Garmin GPS on top- much more to do on this- cheers P scvrobeson, Derek B, Lenny320 and 14 others 16 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Fleischmann Posted September 28, 2021 Author Share Posted September 28, 2021 Ran the rats nest of cables and comm cords. Hemet comm connections, etc and a bunch of cables for the FLIR screens, GPS, etc.. most of the cables from epoxy putty- cheers Pete LSP_Kevin, Hawkwrench, mc65 and 17 others 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The big smurfjet will take most of my mojo, bandwidth, and energy, but I’ll bang away at all of them…but mostly the smurfjet! cheers Pigfighter easixpedro 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Fleischmann Posted October 2, 2021 Author Share Posted October 2, 2021 Hey all- really hard to get decent shots of this- Gloss coat on for decals and wash. The macro lens is brutal. This resin casting is pretty rough, and was a challenge to paint with accuracy..more to do on this- cheers Pete scvrobeson, LSP_Kevin, patricksparks and 8 others 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scvrobeson Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 Even on a "rough" casting, you've done an incredible job Pete. It's really coming to life in your hands. Matt Pete Fleischmann 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
